Connect Fangate or Dropp payment links
Fangate and Dropp Fans let fans pay with a payment link instead of Telegram Stars. You connect them with an API key from their own settings, and their sales are brought into LanaChat next to your Telegram sales.
Only the workspace owner can connect them.
1. Add the workspace keys #
- Create a key on the provider's side. In Fangate: Settings → API → Create key. In Dropp Fans: Account → API keys → New key.
- In the Console, open Agency settings (Users group of the sidebar), then the Integrations tab.
- On the Fangate API or Dropp Fans API card, paste the key and press Save key.
- Press Test connection to check that the key works.
From then on only the last 4 characters of the key are shown. Replace changes it, Disconnect stops the integration.
Warning An API key works like a password. Never send it in a chat or an email.
2. Connect each creator to Fangate #
Fangate works creator by creator. Open the creator in Creators and connect her Fangate account (the Fangate window sends you there when she isn't connected yet). The Connection step offers two ways:
- paste a Fangate API key made for this creator, or
- press Choose an agency account and pick her from your Fangate agency.
The key needs these permissions: Manage content, View transactions and Manage webhooks. Press Connect creator. Credentials are encrypted on the server, never saved in your browser.
3. Turn on payment notifications #
Still in Connection, press Enable payment notifications. This sets up the webhook that tells LanaChat each time a fan pays. Once done, the line reads Payment notifications are connected, and the button becomes Check webhook connection.
Connection recovery has two repairs: Replace webhook signing secret (when a webhook exists but its secret was not saved) and Replace API key.
4. Sell media through Fangate #
Open Vault and press Fangate at the top, or open one photo or video and press Fangate checkout. The window has three tabs.
Media: prepare a media for sale.
- Fill in the Title, a Public description (at least 15 characters) and the Price in the account's currency.
- Choose the Media origin: Not AI generated or modified, Fully AI generated, or AI modified (the creator or another person). For AI media, tick the confirmation.
- Answer Does another person appear in this media? (if yes, consent is required) and choose whether to Allow buyers to download.
- Press Upload & create checkout. The upload continues on the server, so you can close the window.
When it is ready, Copy link or Open checkout, and Edit price at any time. Create employee checkout makes a new link for the same media, with the sales attributed to one team member.
Pending: media waiting for Fangate's moderation, consent and price reviews, and payments not confirmed yet.
Payments: the wallet and every payment. Sync last 30 days syncs the payment history again. Only confirmed sales count as revenue; pending payments and payout holds are separate states.
What happens next #
- Each Fangate sale appears in the Sales logs of the Dashboard with the source Fangate, in its original currency. See Sales logs.
- Commission is counted on the amount the link actually settled. When that amount is not known, the Console uses the gross minus the provider's public fee (Fangate 8%, Dropp Fans 10%). See Commission on sales.
