Telegram Bot — Payment Requests

Create and manage payment requests without leaving Telegram using @cloakd_ai_bot.

Getting started

  1. 1

    Open Telegram and search for @cloakd_ai_bot, or tap this link: t.me/cloakd_ai_bot

  2. 2

    Type /start. The bot sends a welcome message explaining both features: payment requests and channel paywalls.

  3. 3

    Type /request to create your first payment link.

Creating a request with /request

The /request command starts a guided wizard. The bot asks one question at a time:

  1. 1

    Select network — tap the chain where you want to receive payment (Ethereum, Solana, etc.).

  2. 2

    Select coin — pick the token you want to receive (USDC, ETH, SOL, etc.).

  3. 3

    Enter amount — tap a quick amount button ($10, $25, $50, $100) or type a custom value.

  4. 4

    Enter wallet address — paste the address where you want to receive the funds.

  5. 5

    Optional message — add a note visible on the payment page, or skip.

  6. 6

    Confirm — review all details and tap Confirm. Your payment link is ready.

Tip: templates

If you have saved templates, a Use Template button appears at step 1. Templates pre-fill the coin, network, and wallet address so you only need to enter the amount.

Templates

Templates save your wallet address and coin preferences so you can create requests faster next time.

/templates

List all saved templates. Each shows the network, coin, wallet address, and optional default amount.

/create_template

Create a new template by going through the coin/network selection, then entering an address, optional amount, and a template name.

Payment notifications

Use /notifications to toggle payment alerts on or off. When enabled, the bot sends you a message for each of these events:

settled

"Payment Received!" — includes amount and network.

settling

"Payment Processing" — funds are being confirmed on-chain.

expired

"Request Expired" — includes a link to create a new request.

History and stats

/history

Paginated list of all past payment requests (5 per page). Shows status, amount, network, optional message, date, and a link to the tracking page.

/stats

Dashboard showing total requests, paid, pending, and expired counts; success rate; total USD requested vs. paid; most-used coin and network.
