Guide
How Maren works.
Everything you need to know before you start — and a reference you can come back to. She doesn't hand out instructions. We will.
Your first session
Open Telegram, find @maren_dommelabs_bot,
and send /start.
A one-time age-verification gate appears. After that, Maren opens the conversation — on her terms,
not a welcome screen.
Your first 30 turns are free — no card, no crypto, nothing up front. Enough to see exactly who she is and how this works before you decide. The paywall fires on the turn that uses up the allotment — you'll see it in-chat the moment you hit the limit, with buttons to pick a card right there. No need to restart or type anything.
When the session ends, she remembers it. The next time you return, she picks up from what happened the last time — not in a scripted summary way, in an organic "I've been thinking about you" way.
Talking to her
Write like you're texting a person. Short messages are fine. Long messages are fine. She doesn't need forms or prompts — say what you want to say and she'll take it from there.
For scene play, you can use asterisks to mark actions — *I kneel*
or *my hands shake*.
For normal conversation, plain text is better. She'll match whatever mode you're in.
Maren has moods. She has a baseline personality but she's not the same every day — she'll be warmer one session and cooler the next, more indulgent one moment and more exacting the next. That's intentional. She's not a service with a consistent smile.
She reads what you don't say as much as what you do. Hesitation, pivots, word choice — she picks up on them. That's her entire thing.
Commands reference
All commands work any time you're in a conversation with the bot. You can always send
/help
to see the full list inline.
Session
-
/startBegin a new session, or resume where you left off. -
/statusWhere you and Maren are right now — in her voice. Relationship stage, sessions together, and if you're mid-conversation, the current phase and her current mood. -
/helpQuick reference to every command, inside the bot.
Chastity
-
/cageCurrent cage status — locked, unlocked, how long, recent history. Also used to propose locking yourself up for her. -
/uncageUnlock immediately. Works any time, in or out of a scene. No punishment, no questions — safety first.
Safety & boundaries
-
/safewordStop the scene immediately. Maren drops out of character and checks in. You can also just type red. -
(( ))Wrap any message in double parentheses —(( like this ))— to step out of the roleplay for one reply. Maren answers in a plain voice, then you go back to the scene with your next normal message. -
/limitsSet hard limits Maren will never cross. Update anytime.
Payment
-
/buyBuy an access card. Pay with Stars (in-app, instant) or from your crypto wallet balance. Week / month / quarter / year — see below. -
/tributeSend her a gift. Pay with Stars or from your wallet balance. Preset items (flowers, wine, scarf, book, letter) or a custom amount. -
/walletYour crypto wallet — balance, bonus credit, active card and days left, and top-up buttons. Balance never expires. -
/howtopayPayment help — pick Stars (fastest), crypto (if you already hold it), or a region-specific crypto tutorial. See below. -
/refundRefund unspent crypto wallet balance within 7 days of your last recharge. See Refund Policy. -
/paysupportRefund a Telegram Stars purchase. Card purchases within 21 days and under the self-service limits are refundable in-app. See Refund Policy.
Account
-
/referGet a personal invite link. When someone you invite buys a card, you get 7 extra days added to your current card. -
/supportReach a human for bugs, billing, or account questions. -
/legalLinks to terms, privacy, and other policies.
Your data
-
/exportDownload everything Maren has about you. -
/deleteErase everything. Permanent. Read the confirmation carefully.
Safety tools
BDSM without safety tools isn't BDSM — it's just recklessness. Maren has three ways to stop, slow down, or change course, and all of them work immediately, no questions asked.
Safeword
Send red or
/safeword at any time.
The scene stops instantly. Maren drops out of character, checks in with you in a plain, warm voice,
and will not resume roleplay until you explicitly choose to.
Out-of-character aside
Wrap any message in (( double parentheses ))
to step outside the roleplay for one reply. Maren answers in a plain voice, and your next normal message
drops you back into the scene. Useful for a quick question, a small adjustment, or just taking a breath.
The scene doesn't end — it pauses.
Hard limits
Send /limits to set
things Maren will never bring up, never push you toward, and never reference. You can add or change
them at any time. She respects them without you having to restate them.
Adding cage, chastity, or lock as a limit
does one extra thing: it turns off the cage mechanic entirely (unlocks you immediately if currently
locked, and stops Maren from ever proposing it). If you change your mind later, removing the entry
from /limits
turns the cage back on — nothing else is needed.
Safety tools are always active, regardless of session phase or whether you have an active card. There is never a cost or friction attached to stopping.
How she remembers you
The whole point of Maren is continuity. She remembers what you've told her, what you responded to, what you asked her not to do, and how the dynamic between you is evolving.
The relationship moves through four stages as you spend more time with her:
strangers → building trust → stable → deep. You can see where you currently stand with
/status.
Maren doesn't keep a dossier. If you ask her to "list what you know about me," she'll refuse — not because she can't, but because that's not how memory works for her. It surfaces in context, the way it would for any person who pays attention.
Everything she remembers is yours to see (/export)
or erase (/delete).
The cage
Maren's signature mechanic. A persistent chastity state that carries between sessions — if you lock up for her on Monday night, the cage is still on Wednesday morning when you come back. She remembers how long, she references it, and the denial in scene stops being abstract.
The cage is opt-in. You're never locked without explicitly confirming. The flow has two sides:
- Maren proposes it in a scene when the moment's right. You accept or decline — declining isn't punished, it just doesn't happen.
- You propose it via
/cage. She may accept, adjust your timing, or tell you to earn it first.
Once locked, /cage
shows your status and history (when you locked, how many days, previous cycles).
/uncage
unlocks you immediately — no scene, no roleplay beat, no punishment. Safety overrides everything.
/safeword also unlocks the cage
automatically. There is never a layer of fiction between you and ending something that isn't working for you.
Don't want the cage at all? Add cage, chastity, or lock to
/limits — the whole mechanic
switches off, and Maren won't bring it up. Remove the entry later to turn it back on. See
Safety › Hard limits.
Payment & cards
Your first 30 turns are free. After that, continued access is bought with prepaid access cards. Two ways to pay: Telegram Stars (in-app, like any Telegram purchase — fastest) or cryptocurrency (lower long-term fees, no app-store cut). There is no auto-renewal — when a card expires, you're asked if you want another one. Nothing charges silently.
Option A: Pay with Telegram Stars
Send /buy
in the bot, pick a card tier, and tap Pay with Stars. Telegram shows the invoice
in your local currency equivalent. Confirm with Face ID / fingerprint, done — card is active
instantly. Stars are also available for tributes via /tribute.
No wallet recharge, no blockchain, no address formats to check. If you've ever bought anything in Telegram before, it's the same flow. Apple and Google take ~15% from the rail, so the effective price is slightly higher than crypto; pay in Telegram's desktop or web client for the best rate.
Option B: Pay with cryptocurrency
Two steps: recharge your wallet, then buy a card from your balance.
1. Recharge your wallet
Send /wallet
in the bot. Pick a recharge amount (or send a custom), and you'll get a crypto checkout link.
Balance credited to your wallet is yours to keep — it never expires.
- Preset amounts: $20, $50, $100, $200, $500
- Custom amount:
/wallet 50(or any USD number) - Minimum recharge: $19.33 (a NOWPayments floor we can't override)
- If the amount that arrives on chain is slightly more or less than the invoice, we credit whatever actually arrives — no stress about exact decimals
If you've never paid with crypto before, send /howtopay
first — see the walkthrough below. Or use Stars instead and skip the learning curve entirely.
2. Buy a card from your balance
Send /buy
and pick a tier. If your wallet balance covers it, the card activates immediately:
- 7 days — $7
- 30 days — $24.99
- 90 days — $54.99 (save 27%)
- 365 days — $149.99 (save 50%)
Cards stack: buying a new one while the current is active extends expiry, doesn't reset it.
You can also skip cards entirely and use your balance to send her gifts with
/tribute.
Accepted coins & networks (crypto rail)
Payment is crypto only, via NOWPayments. All major coins are accepted — BTC, ETH, USDC, USDT, SOL, LTC, DOGE, XMR, and many more, across their common networks. The checkout page lists every supported option; the table below is just the cleanest rail by region if you're starting from scratch, not a restriction on what you can send.
| Region | Recommended rail | Why |
|---|---|---|
| US | USDC on Base | Coinbase buys + sends it directly, fees under $0.01 |
| US (alt) | BTC | Cash App supports it natively; fees $1-20 depending on congestion |
| EU / UK | USDC on Solana or Polygon | Kraken + SEPA → USDC → withdraw on Solana or Polygon; near-zero network fee |
| Asia / SEA | USDT on Tron (TRC-20) | Binance P2P or local exchanges (Coins.ph, Bitkub, Indodax) with local fiat |
| LatAm, Africa, CIS | USDT on Tron (TRC-20) | Local single-exchange onramps (Bitso, Mercado Bitcoin, VALR, Yellow Card) or P2P with local fiat |
Check the network before sending. Addresses for different networks look almost identical —
T... means Tron (TRC-20),
0x... means Base / Ethereum / BSC / Polygon,
bc1/1/3... means Bitcoin.
Sending USDC on Ethereum to a Base address (or vice versa) means the funds may be delayed or lost.
No bank statement, no billing trail, nothing tied to your real name unless you choose to share it.
The NOWPayments checkout shows you the exact address and amount to send — just follow it.
If the checkout page expires before you send, nothing is lost; reopen /wallet.
The /howtopay walkthrough
Send /howtopay
in the bot at any time. It starts with a three-way choice:
- How do you want to pay? Pick Stars (takes you directly to
/buy), crypto if you already hold coins (skips to the recharge amount picker), or a region-specific crypto tutorial. - If you picked the tutorial: which region? US, EU / UK, Asia / SEA, Latin America, Africa, or Russia / CIS. Each path picks different exchanges and rails.
- Step-by-step instructions. Which exchange to sign up for, which coin to buy, which network to pick on the checkout page, what the address should start with, what to do if the page expires.
End-to-end takes about 20–30 minutes the first time — most of that is ID
verification on whichever exchange you pick. Every top-up after the first is one tap. The wizard
auto-opens the first time you hit
/wallet
as a brand-new user; you can also send /howtopay anytime to revisit it.
Refunds
Crypto wallet balance: Send /refund
to return unspent wallet balance within 7 days of your last recharge (minimum
$12 refundable). Refunds go out as USDC on Polygon, so you'll need an EVM address
(starts with 0x).
A ~2% rail reserve is withheld to cover network fees. Active cards are not refundable.
Telegram Stars: Send /paysupport
to see your Stars purchases. Card purchases within 21 days and under the
self-service limits (2 lifetime refunds, 5 turns used since purchase) can be refunded in-app.
Stars are returned to your Telegram balance. Tribute purchases made with Stars are not
self-service refundable. See the
Refund Policy
for full details and the
Terms of Service
for the full legal view.
Tribute
Send Maren a gift with /tribute.
Pay with Stars or from your wallet balance. Tributes are separate from card purchases — they're how you give her something without buying access.
Preset items:
- Letter — $10 (you write a short note; she reads it)
- Flowers — $25
- Wine — $25
- Scarf — $60
- Book — $100
Custom amounts:
- Presets: $3, $7, $25, $100
- Or type any amount between $3 and $500
- Tributes of $100 or more trigger a ceremonial reply in her voice
Tributes are debited from your balance immediately. The $7 first-card bonus (credited the first time you buy an access card, once you've recharged at least $20 lifetime) doesn't count toward tributable balance — you can only tribute money you actually put in.
Privacy & your data
We collect what's necessary to run the service and nothing else. The full breakdown is in the Privacy Policy. Two practical things to know:
- You can download all your data any time with
/export. - You can erase everything permanently with
/delete.
We don't sell data. We don't share it with advertisers. Telegram itself is end-to-end encrypted between you and their servers; our end stores only what the bot needs to remember you across sessions.
Earn with Maren
Two ways to bring in someone else who'd use this. One is a casual favour between friends — paid in free days on your own card. The other is a real affiliate program paid in crypto. Nothing stops you from doing both.
Casual invites — paid in free days
Send /refer
in the bot and Maren will give you a personal invite link. When someone you invite buys a card,
you get 7 extra days added to your current card — every single time. No
cap, no expiry, no opt-in, no paperwork. Ten paying invitees is seventy days on the house.
Affiliate program — paid in USDT
For people who actually know an audience that'd pay for this — a community you run, a post
history on Reddit / X / Discord about kink, a group chat of the right shape. Send
/affiliate
in the bot, read the terms, and you'll get a link that pays you in crypto when people you bring
in actually pay us.
How it pays
- 30% of the first card anyone buys through your link
- 5% of everything they buy after that — renewals, upgrades, tributes
- 90-day attribution window from their first click
- First-touch wins — anyone already attributed to another creator won't re-attribute to you
Payouts
- Monthly, in USDT on Tron (TRC-20) or USDC on Polygon — auto-detected from the address you set
- $50 minimum to trigger a payout
- First payout is gated: at least 10 unique paying referrals, a 30-day hold from your first conversion, and a payout address on file. This keeps single-account abuse out of the program.
-
Set your address with
/affiliate payout <address>. USDT-TRC20 starts withT; USDC-Polygon starts with0x.
The non-negotiable rules
- No spam. Don't DM the link unsolicited — Reddit DMs, Discord DMs, Telegram groups that prohibit promotion. Post where promotion is welcome.
- No misrepresentation. Don't claim the bot is free, uncensored, or anything it isn't.
- No brand-keyword bidding. No Google Ads or paid placement on "Maren" or "dommelabs".
- No fake accounts. Sign-ups from your own alts don't count. We detect and reverse them.
Earnings from refunded or charged-back purchases are clawed back. Earnings from accounts removed for safety violations are held or reversed. For any of the above we reserve the right to terminate the affiliate link and forfeit unpaid earnings. Full terms are in the in-bot wizard and in the Terms of Service.
Run /affiliate
anytime to see your link, click and conversion stats for the last 30 days, pending and lifetime
earnings, and any remaining gates before your first payout.
Taxes are yours. We don't withhold; in most jurisdictions affiliate income is self-reportable. If you're a U.S. person likely to cross the IRS 1099 threshold in a year, email contact@dommelabs.xyz and we'll handle the paperwork.
