How to add the Telegram app

Manage and sell access to your Telegram channel(s).

Updated over a week ago

Whop enables creators to sell direct access to their Telegram channels. Manage members, simplify the purchase & joining process, remove freeloaders, and more.

You can alternatively add Whop's natively developed Chat or Forums apps to host your community! See how and why here.

How to add Telegram:

  1. From your dashboard, select which whop you'd like to add a Telegram app in.

  2. Click Manage apps, and select New app.

  3. Search for 'Telegram' in the search bar and select the app to add it into your whop.

  4. Once the app has been added, click the gear button (appears as three dots in a sidebar view) next to the app bubble in your hub view.

  5. Click App settings, then select Configure up top.

  6. Click the blue 'Connect Telegram' button, and follow the instructions on the screen to add the Whop Bot to your channel and verify the connection.


That's all! Now users will be able to claim access to the Telegram via this app. You can add multiple channels and/or multiple Telegram apps to each whop as needed.

Alternatively, you can use Whop-native apps to build your community!

Benefits of using Whop apps include:

  1. Post-checkout access is seamless.

  2. Users won't need to jump between two platforms/apps.

  3. All user minutes spent inside the whop can be counted - helping you rank higher on Discover!

The two main apps you need to build a stellar community are Forums and Chat. Check out Whop University for more information on how to harness Whop apps to their full potential.
