Sell One-Time Access with Skrill
A wallet-and-card checkout reaching 131 countries, for lifetime and fixed-length plans on Telegram
Skrill is the fallback for regions where PayPal is hard to get and the choice of buyers who already keep a Skrill wallet. In this integration it takes one-time charges only: a member pays once for a lifetime plan, a pass or a fixed period, and pays again by hand when they want to continue.

Why creators pick Skrill
Coverage where others are thin
Skrill reaches 131 countries and territories and lets buyers pay from a wallet or as a guest by card, so it fills gaps a card gateway or PayPal leave in some regions.
Right for one-time products
Lifetime access, a season pass, a fixed thirty-day period: anything a member buys once fits Skrill. Skrill never charges a member again on its own, so keep it for plans that do not renew.
Two fields to connect
Your Skrill merchant email and the Secret Word you set in Skrill's developer settings are all it takes; there is no key rotation to schedule.
Works on the portal too
Skrill's checkout is a browser redirect, so members can pay through it on the web portal as well as from the bot.
How to connect Skrill
- 1
Sign in to Skrill, open Settings, Developer Settings, then the API and MQI management page, and set a Secret Word of eight or more characters with upper case, lower case and a number.
- 2
In your dashboard open Payment Methods, choose Set Up a Payment Method, pick Skrill and select Live, or Test if Skrill gave your account one.
- 3
Enter your Skrill merchant email and the Secret Word.
- 4
Switch the method on and save.

Offer Skrill on plans that do not renew; it takes one payment per purchase and never charges the next cycle.
Best for

- Regions where PayPal approval is difficult
- Buyers who already hold a Skrill wallet
Often paired with
Every active method is offered at checkout, so a second one widens who can pay you.

My test payments fail; what should I check?

They pay again through the same checkout. Access ends when the paid period ends and reopens the moment the new payment settles.
