What is Fragment?
Updated
Fragment (fragment.com) is a platform for Telegram usernames, numbers, Telegram Premium and Telegram Stars. It takes payment only in cryptocurrency, which is why most people in Kenya don't use it directly.
What you can do on Fragment
- Buy and sell collectible Telegram usernames and anonymous numbers.
- Top up Telegram Stars, for yourself or someone else.
- Buy Telegram Premium for yourself, or as a gift.
- Prepay giveaways for a channel or group.
- Pay for Telegram Ads.
Fragment describes itself as a platform for trading collectibles between users that also gives access to some Telegram services. See fragment.com/about.
How you pay on Fragment
Fragment takes cryptocurrency only: Grams (GRAM, the coin of the TON blockchain) or the stablecoins USDT and USDC, sent from a crypto wallet such as Tonkeeper or MyTonWallet. It doesn't take M-Pesa or cards, and its prices are in US dollars and crypto.
What that means in Kenya
- You need a crypto wallet, and crypto in it, before you can buy anything.
- Buying crypto usually means an exchange, and exchanges may ask for your ID.
- Fragment itself can ask buyers to verify their identity, and Telegram limits some purchases, such as Premium, in some countries.
- Crypto prices move, so what you pay in shillings depends on the day.
It works well if you already use crypto. If you'd rather pay in shillings, there's an easier way.
How Oya Stars uses Fragment for you
When you order in @oyastarsbot, you pay us in Kenyan shillings with M-Pesa. We then buy your Stars, Premium or giveaway on Fragment ourselves, and it's delivered to the account or chat you chose, usually within seconds. You don't need a wallet, crypto or a Fragment account.
Oya Stars is independent and not affiliated with Telegram or Fragment.
