First Steps in Purple
Purple is a cashback service that lives inside Telegram. Here is the launch, step by step — from opening the Mini App to your first payout.
Purple in a minute
Purple is a cashback service, not a standalone platform for chatting. The earning from activity happens on a partner dating platform, and Purple returns part of your spending and activity to you as bonuses. Everything runs right inside Telegram through a Mini App — there is no separate app to install.
There are two currencies inside the service, and it helps to grasp the difference up front:
| Currency | What it is for | Withdrawal |
|---|---|---|
| Purple Coins | Internal bonuses (1 coin = $0.01), used only for bonus boxes | Not withdrawn directly |
| Dollars | Real balance ready for payout | Via Telegram Wallet, from $10, with no Purple fee |
In short, the path looks like this: you collect coins, open bonus boxes with them, get dollars, and withdraw to Telegram Wallet.
Step 1. Open the Mini App
There is just one starting point — follow the link to the bot and tap "Launch": https://t.me/purpleapp_bot. Telegram opens the Mini App inside itself, with no downloads and no email sign-up. Your profile is already recognized from your Telegram account, so there is no separate login.
Step 2. Confirm you are 18+
On the first screen you confirm that you are at least 18. This is not a formality: bonus boxes and the dating mechanics themselves are for adults only. You cannot move forward without this consent — and that is by design.
Step 3. Choose your gender
Purple has no roles. There are two simple axes: gender (woman or man) and payout method. Your gender sets which cashback scenario fits you best:
- Women — cashback for activity in conversations. That is 5% on the basic level, or 35% with free Premium.
- Men — cashback for purchases on the partner platform: buy minutes or a Premium package, and up to 40% comes back in coins.
Picking a gender only tunes your scenario; it does not lock you out of the rest of the features.
Step 4. Connect Telegram Wallet
Dollars are paid out through Telegram Wallet — a wallet built right into the messenger. If you do not have one yet, Telegram will offer to activate it in a couple of taps. You do not need the wallet straight away — only when you reach your first withdrawal (from $10), so you can set it up later. Payouts arrive within hours, with no fee on Purple's side.
Step 5. Get started and earn first bonuses
After onboarding you land on the home screen. Here is where to begin:
- Collect coins — from activity or purchases, depending on your scenario.
- Bonus boxes — spend coins to open a $5, $10, or $50 box. The win never exceeds the box price: it is an element of fun, not a lottery, and it is 18+ only.
- Invite friends — the referral program gives you a flat 5% in coins from each invited person's activity. It is a separate bonus, it does not reduce your friend's income, and it is credited automatically every month.
Premium for women is free and optional: 35% cashback, priority withdrawals, and personal support. It is not insurance and not a guaranteed percentage — simply a higher return for your activity.
