comminari

Comminari is a web-based platform for monetizing private Telegram groups and channels. It helps creators, educators, consultants and community owners sell access to their communities while automating payments, invitations, renewals and membership expiration.

The platform connects Telegram with Stripe, allowing administrators to manage the complete membership workflow from a centralized dashboard instead of manually reviewing payments, sending invitation links or checking expired subscriptions.

Community owners can create recurring subscriptions, one-time payments and access plans with weekly, monthly, yearly, custom-duration or fixed-end-date access. They can also offer percentage-based or fixed-amount discount codes with redemption limits, expiration dates and plan-specific availability.

Each community receives a public payment page where buyers can choose a plan, identify themselves with Telegram and pay through Stripe Checkout. Once a payment is confirmed, Comminari links it to the buyer’s Telegram identity and provides access to the corresponding private group or channel.

Membership access remains synchronized with payment status. Successful renewals keep access active, while failed payments can trigger a configurable grace period before access is restricted. Members can also use a dedicated web page to manage their subscriptions and recover access without contacting the community administrator.

The dashboard centralizes member status, expiration dates, payments and activity for every connected community. It also provides financial information such as gross revenue, platform fees, net collected amounts, active paying users, refunds and disputes. Integration with Stripe Tax enables automatic tax calculation when configured.

Comminari is suitable for premium content channels, educational communities, mentorship programs, professional networks, fitness groups, paid clubs, private client communities and temporary programs such as courses, workshops or cohorts.

The service has no setup fee or fixed monthly subscription. Comminari charges a transaction-based platform fee only when the community receives payments, with rates currently ranging from 3% to 1% depending on monthly revenue. Stripe processing fees are charged separately.
