The rules
Self-referral, attribution, reversed earnings, and what can get an account suspended.
Self-referral is blocked
Signing up through your own link earns nothing, whether you do it directly or through another account you control. This is enforced, not just asked for.
One click, one credit — the first one
Clicks are deduplicated and bot traffic is filtered before anything is counted. Attribution goes to the first link a visitor clicked inside the attribution window (see sharing your link) — clicking a different affiliate's link later does not move the credit.
Earnings follow the money
A credit exists only because a real, confirmed payment exists behind it. If that payment is refunded or charged back, the credit it produced is reversed. Every reversal is its own ledger row, exactly like every credit.
The platform can suspend an account
The admin side of the programme includes an affiliate list with overrides, suspension, a withdrawal queue and fraud flags. An account behaving in a way those flags are built to catch — fabricated clicks, self-referral attempts, anything of that shape — can be suspended. Suspension stops new credits; it does not touch what was already validly earned and paid.
You can hold both roles
Running your own channel and earning as a marketer is not a choice between two accounts — one Telegram account can be both a tenant and an affiliate at once.
That is everything decided so far. When the programme opens, this chapter is the first thing that gets updated if anything here changes.
