Developer integration
A Stripe webhook can be the trusted handoff between website payment and Telegram access, provided access-code creation and membership updates stay server side.
Webhook handlers should verify events before updating membership. Frontend redirects and browser state should not unlock private Telegram groups.
Every Stripe product or price should map to a KickThemBot plan, duration, protected destination, and renewal rule.
Renewal, failed payment, cancellation, refund, and dispute events should all keep Telegram membership status aligned with payment reality.
Access lifecycle
Every paid membership in KickThemBot follows the same path: a payment, the member's Telegram account, a visible status and removal when access ends.
A Stripe checkout on your own account, or an access code you send after a crypto, invoice or partner sale, starts the membership.
The membership belongs to the Telegram account that paid or redeemed the code, and each invite link holds one member at a time.
In the Mini App, admins search members, see each plan, status, end date and source, and extend or remove access.
Reminders go out before the end date, subscriptions get a short renewal grace, and the bot removes members when access ends.
FAQ
Yes. Trusted backend code can verify the event, map the plan, and call the membership API to create a controlled access code.
No. Webhooks and API keys require trusted backend code or secure server-side infrastructure.
