Inside

A bot, a cabinet, an API and two admin panels

Everything runs under your brand and on your server.

  • Telegram bot

    A device setup wizard, balance, top-ups, promo codes, gifts, referrals and payment history. The menu is built from buttons you configure.

  • Customer cabinet

    One Next.js build: a Telegram mini app and a website on your domain. Sign-in by email and password, passkey or Telegram, with two-factor protection. Part of the licence with website.

  • REST API

    130 methods for customer cabinets documented in Scalar, Swagger and ReDoc, and about 400 admin methods for automation. Outgoing webhooks for 20 events, signed with HMAC.

  • Admin in Telegram

    Users, payments, servers, broadcasts, analytics and settings. Roles for support staff.

  • Bot Hub

    The bot’s web admin in the licence dashboard: up to 34 sections, roles and permissions for your team.

  • Licence dashboard

    Premium is enabled and new bot builds are delivered through it.

A balance charged once a day

The customer tops up a balance; the bot charges for each device once a day.

Prices are set in roubles per device per day, and the first day is charged when the device is created. Customers see how many days their balance will last, and the bot reminds them two days and one day before it runs out. Used to monthly plans? Convert them into a daily price and set the discount for larger top-ups with bonus rules.

Why: if the service goes down, through your fault or because of a large DDoS attack that no small VPN can absorb, the customer loses days rather than a prepaid year. Fewer refunds, disputes and complaints.

  • Several plans: each protocol has its own price, traffic limit with a reset period, device limit and server list
  • Discounts for 5, 10 and 20 devices, top-up bonuses, a starting balance instead of a trial
  • Promo codes that add to a top-up and coupons for a fixed amount
  • Gifts: a code for an amount from your own balance, and topping up a friend’s balance, anonymously if you like
  • Referrals: a percentage of top-ups on two levels, or a fixed amount for the first device or first top-up
  • Refunds through the YooKassa, FreeKassa and Wata APIs, the rest by request

Servers and protocols

The bot issues configs, enforces limits and installs nodes itself.

  • Remnawave, WireGuard and AmneziaWG in any combination; Marzban works too, but the panel is outdated, so we recommend Remnawave for new projects

  • The bot installs Remnawave and Marzban nodes itself over SSH; there is an SSH console and commands for several nodes at once

  • WireGuard and AmneziaWG through our own agent: traffic quotas, speed limits, statistics

  • HWID device limit with Remnawave, traffic limits with a daily, weekly or monthly reset

  • Freezing a device is free; unfreezing costs one day

  • Server monitoring every 15 minutes: availability, SSH, panel, SSL, with alerts to admins

Choosing a panel? Remnawave or Marzban
