Telegram Stars are easy to earn but hard to spend outside Telegram. StarStore fixes that: you can sell, convert, and withdraw your Telegram Stars to TON (or USDT on the TON network) in minutes, and the entire process happens inside the @TgStarStore_bot Telegram Mini App, not on any website.
Where you sell: the @TgStarStore_bot Mini App
There is no web form for selling Stars. Everything: buying, selling, converting Stars to TON, referrals, and withdrawals, is handled inside Telegram through @TgStarStore_bot. Open the bot in Telegram, tap Start, and launch the StarStore Mini App. This keeps your account, balances, and payouts tied to your Telegram identity and protected by Telegram's own security.
How to sell Telegram Stars for TON: step by step
- Open @TgStarStore_bot in Telegram and launch the Mini App.
- Go to the Sell page.
- Enter the number of Stars you want to convert (50 minimum, 80,000 maximum per transaction).
- Choose your payout: USDT on the TON network (default and cheapest); TRC-20 is also supported if you prefer.
- Paste your TON-network wallet address. No memo or tag is required.
- Review the live rate shown in the Mini App, then confirm. You'll get an order ID instantly.
- Your Stars enter a 21-day holding window. After it clears, your payout is sent to your wallet.
- Send your order ID to the bot at any time to check the current status.
Converting Stars to TON vs. USDT
"Selling," "converting," "cashing out," and "withdrawing" Stars all describe the same flow in StarStore: you hand over Stars and receive crypto on the TON network. Most users settle in USDT on TON because it provides a stable value and is the cheapest path. If you specifically want native TON or TRC-20 USDT, you can request it; just note that off-TON networks may carry a transaction cost you cover yourself, which eats into small payouts.
Why is there a 21-day holding window?
Stars are bought through third-party payment rails (cards, wallets, processors) that can reverse a charge days or weeks later. The 21-day hold mirrors Telegram's own Stars-revenue window and protects against chargebacks; which is exactly what keeps StarStore's payouts reliable and our fees low.
