Payment problems go to the payment provider or Service Provider, not Telegram

Payments made or started through a Mini App are processed by a third-party payment provider, as agreed between you, the Service Provider and the payment provider, which at times may be the same party. Telegram says it does not handle, manage, oversee, verify or warrant these transactions. Disputes, claims, losses, misunderstandings, technical errors or other issues of any kind related to payments must go to the payment provider or the Service Provider. Telegram says it will not be a party to payment disputes and is not liable for losses the parties may incur.
