What Telegram Premium actually costs
Telegram Premium runs $4.99/month when billed through the app, or roughly $39.99/year if you pay annually — both prices include the roughly 30% cut Apple and Google take on in-app purchases. There's a cheaper route through Telegram's own TON-based marketplace, Fragment, but it requires holding cryptocurrency and passing identity verification — more friction than most people want just to get Premium.
| Billing option | Telegram direct | SubSplit price | Saving |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monthly billing (×12) | $59.88/yr (~₦83,800/yr) | $15 (~₦21,000) | up to 75% off |
| Annual plan (app store) | $39.99/yr (~₦55,990/yr) | $15 (~₦21,000) | up to 62% off |
Naira figures are approximate, converted at around ₦1,400/$1 (September 2026). The app-store annual price includes Apple/Google's in-app purchase fee, which direct billing and SubSplit both avoid.
Same Telegram Premium. Different price. Larger file uploads, faster downloads, no ads on public channels, exclusive stickers and reactions — activated the moment it lands, no password required.
Why is SubSplit so much cheaper?
Telegram prices a gifted Premium subscription based on the sender's home market rather than the recipient's — and by most pricing trackers, Nigeria sits among the cheapest markets for Telegram Premium in the world. SubSplit sources subscriptions against that pricing and passes it on to you in naira, through Paystack, with no forex conversion, no crypto wallet, and no waiting on identity verification.
It's still a genuine Telegram Premium subscription — just delivered through Telegram's own gift mechanism instead of your own card.

Other ways to get Telegram Premium cheaper — and why they're worse
Paying through the app directly
The default route — $4.99/month or around $39.99/year — bakes in the roughly 30% fee Apple and Google charge on in-app purchases, billed straight to your own card.
Buying through Fragment (TON marketplace)
Telegram's own crypto marketplace can undercut app-store pricing, but it means holding TON or another supported cryptocurrency, passing mandatory identity verification, and getting the payment network exactly right — send to the wrong chain and there's no getting it back.
Switching your App Store region
Some regions show cheaper listed prices, but that means creating or maintaining a foreign App Store or Play Store account — a hassle that can also run into the store's own terms of service.
Gifting it to yourself through Telegram
Telegram does let you send Premium as a gift to your own username directly from the app, but you're still paying the full sender-side price from your own card. SubSplit already holds the credit — you just provide your username.
