New Sales Channel: Telegram Bot for Your Store

🚀 Telegram Sales Are Now Available

We’ve added the ability to sell your store’s products through a Telegram bot.

Now customers can browse your catalog and place orders not only on your website, but also directly in Telegram.

All products listed in your store are available in the bot. Customers can browse them either as a complete list or by categories if categories are configured in your store.

Two payment methods are supported: RWS Pay account balance and cryptocurrency.

To pay via RWS Pay, users need to link their Telegram account to their platform account in the profile settings. Once linked, purchases can be completed in the bot within seconds using funds from the RWS Pay balance.

For cryptocurrency payments, the same conditions apply as for regular orders: the same wallet and payment processor are used.

To create your own bot, go to @BotFather and create a new bot. Choose a name, customize its appearance, and add a description that matches your store.

Then copy the bot token, enter it in your store settings under the “Telegram Bot” section, and activate the integration.

Done! Your store now has an additional sales channel.

All orders placed through the bot will appear in the standard store orders section with a separate label, making it easy to track their source.

This new feature helps you reach a wider audience, improve customer convenience, and increase sales through an additional customer interaction channel.

When editing a product, we've added the ability to enable or disable visibility of the item in the Telegram bot and store. This allows you to create products that are only available in the bot and hidden from the storefront.
