Answers to the most popular questions about exchanging Telegram Stars for USDT

Go to @flash_swap_bot, deposit Stars via Telegram payment check, and after the waiting period (21 days) withdraw USDT to your TON wallet.

The amount depends on the current Stars to USDT rate. Use the calculator on this page for an accurate estimate.

Minimum deposit is 5 Stars. Maximum is 5,000,000 Stars.

Funds from Telegram arrive within 21-22 days. Some transactions may be processed earlier.

A TON wallet is an address on the TON network, e.g. Telegram Wallet (@Wallet), Tonkeeper, or any wallet supporting Jetton (USDT).

Share your referral link from the bot. For each person you invite, you earn 10% of the commission from their exchange (deposits up to 2000 ⭐).

Telegram processes Stars payments centrally: after you pay, the funds are verified inside Telegram and reach the service (the bot) within 21–22 days. This is a Telegram limitation, not a Flash Swap one. As soon as the bot receives the funds, it sends USDT to your TON wallet immediately.

At the current Flash Swap rate, 1 Star is worth 0.013 USDT. The rate is locked in at the moment of exchange and is always shown in the calculator on this page. For 1000 Stars the gross amount is 13 USDT before commission.

Payment goes through an official Telegram payment invoice — you transfer Stars to the @flash_swap_bot balance, not to random people. Once the payment is confirmed, the bot automatically sends USDT to your TON wallet, and the full transaction history stays in your bot chat.

Exchanging Stars for USDT is a voluntary deal between you and the service. Crypto rules vary by country: in Russia, a law legalizing crypto operations for residents has been in force since 2026. Check the current requirements in your country before exchanging.

The bot does not withhold tax — obligations depend on the law of your country. In some jurisdictions receiving USDT is subject to income tax. Check the rules with your tax authority.

USDT arrives on the TON network as Jetton. The built-in Telegram Wallet (@Wallet), Tonkeeper, MyTonWallet or any other wallet that supports USDT (TON) will work. Send the bot your wallet address before exchanging.

Yes: Flash Swap first pays out USDT to your TON wallet, then you sell the USDT for rubles on a P2P platform and receive the money on your bank card.

Contact support at @flash_swap_support_bot and send a screenshot of your bot chat. We will check the transaction in the Telegram payment invoice and either complete the exchange or refund you.

You can buy Stars inside Telegram: open the Stars section (star icon in the menu) and pay with a bank card or through your carrier. You can also receive Stars as gifts from subscribers if you have Telegram Premium.
