The cheapest way to buy Stars

Cashing out to USD

TON on Kraken, OKX or Bybit, then an ACH transfer to a US bank account.

Telegram fixes the payout in US dollars, but pays it in TON — so the dollar amount you end up with still depends on the TON price when you sell. Minimum payout is 1,000 earned Stars, worth about $13.00.
