Cashier creative
A sponsored message that triggers a payment flow directly inside Telegram instead of redirecting to an external landing page. Three cashier formats are tracked separately: Stars-priced invoices (invoiceCurrency=XTR), paid-media offers in any currency (USD, EUR, etc.) and Premium giveaways. Cashier creatives concentrate in mini-app advertisers, gaming bots and creator-economy products. Filterable on /cashier; CSV export at /api/v1/cashier-creatives.csv.
