III. Telegram Premium Activation Steps
✅ Method 1: Android or Desktop (Recommended, supports virtual cards)
Open the Telegram app (official desktop version or Android app recommended)
Click on your profile picture in the upper left corner → Find Telegram Premium or enter through the settings page
Choose a subscription plan (usually monthly)
In the pop-up payment interface, select "Credit Card Payment" (do not select Google/iOS in-app purchases)
Enter your virtual card information:
Card Number
Expiration Date
Security Code (CVV)
Cardholder Name (matches virtual card information)
Click "Pay"
The payment will be effective immediately upon successful payment, and the Premium blue badge will automatically appear.
❌ Method 2: iOS (Virtual cards are not recommended)
iOS activation uses Apple ID. Payment cannot be made using a virtual card directly.
If you are using an iPhone, we recommend the following: Activate Premium on an Android phone or computer, and it will automatically take effect on iOS.
Alternatively, top up your Apple ID and make in-app purchases (virtual cards cannot be linked).
