To allow PayPass to automatically generate invite links and evict members whose access has expired, the bot must be added to your community with specific administrator privileges.

Granting Administrator Privileges

The bot does not require full control over your chat, but it does need several administrative capabilities. Grant the bot the following privileges:

Permission	Why It Is Required
Invite Users via Link	Required to dynamically generate secure, single-use join links for verified subscribers.
Ban/Restrict Users	Required to automatically evict members when their subscriptions expire.
Manage Chat (Optional)	Helps the bot verify membership updates and log joining accounts.
