Buying Plus or Pro with a bank card, step by step

Barzaman’s paid plans are paid for with a bank card through the Zibal payment gateway (part of Iran’s Shaparak network). You enter your card only on Zibal’s secure page — never in Barzaman — and nothing is ever charged automatically. Prices are on the pricing page; the app always shows the exact amount before you pay.

Before you start

You need a Barzaman account — see creating an account.
You need an Iranian bank card (any Shetab card) enabled for online payments, with its CVV2, expiry date and second (online) PIN.

Step by step

In Barzaman, open Settings → Plans & billing.
Choose Monthly or Yearly at the top. Yearly costs less than twelve months.
Tap Get Plus or Get Pro.
Check the summary — plan, period and amount — and tap the pay button.
Zibal’s secure payment page opens. Enter your card details and the one-time PIN, and confirm.
You return to Barzaman automatically. The plan activates as soon as Zibal verifies the payment. When you see Welcome to Plus! (or Pro) with the end date, you’re done.

If you’ve connected Bale, the Barzaman bot also sends a receipt to your Bale chat.

Rial or Toman? The payment page charges in Rial; Barzaman shows prices in Toman. 1 Toman = 10 Rial, so 100,000 Toman appears as 1,000,000 Rial.

Extra storage (+100 GB)

Need more room for attachments? On the same Plans & billing screen you can buy the +100 GB storage add-on. It is bought one month at a time, paid the same way by card, and its price is shown in the app before you pay.

No automatic renewal

Each purchase is a prepaid month or year. Nothing renews or charges by itself, so there is nothing to cancel.

To extend, buy again any time with Add time to Plus (or Pro). The new period starts when your current one ends — you never lose a day.
Upgrading from Plus to Pro starts Pro right away; the Plus time you have left keeps running underneath it.
When a paid period ends, your data stays; paid features simply switch off until you buy again.

If something goes wrong

I closed the payment page or it timed out. Nothing was charged. Start again from Plans & billing.
Money left my account but the plan isn’t active. Wait a minute and pull down on the plans page to refresh. Still nothing? Contact support with the time of payment and, if you have it, the bank reference (track) number — don’t pay again. If a payment isn’t verified, banks usually return it to your card automatically within 72 hours.
“Payments open soon.” Payments are temporarily unavailable; try again later.

Refunds

Refunds go through our support team and are paid back to the card you paid with. Write to support@barzaman.ir or message us in Bale with the time of payment. We refund duplicate payments and payments for plans we couldn’t activate, and review every other request fairly. See the terms of service.
