Hey everyone! I’m in the content business and I’m looking for some tech help. I need a bot for Telegram that can handle automated messaging and content sales. Here’s what I’m thinking:
- The bot should be able to send messages with locked content (videos and photos)
- Users can buy this content directly through the bot
- It should work in both group chats and private messages
- I’d like to have multiple payment options, not just Telegram’s built-in system
I’m flexible on the price, but I’m thinking it’ll be at least $100. Also, it’d be great to work with someone who can make small changes if needed later on.
If you’re interested, please send me a private message. It’d be awesome if you could show me an example of a similar bot you’ve made before. Thanks in advance for your help!
I’ve been in your shoes, amelial. Last year, I needed a similar bot for my digital course business. After some trial and error, I found a developer who nailed it. The bot we created handles everything from content previews to secure payments.
One thing I’d strongly recommend is focusing on user experience. Our bot uses a simple menu system that guides users through the purchase process smoothly. We also implemented a feature where users can ‘sample’ a small portion of the content before buying.
Security was a big concern for us too. We ended up using a combination of Telegram’s built-in security features and additional encryption for sensitive data. It’s worth the extra effort to protect your content and your customers’ information.
For payments, we integrated Stripe and PayPal, which gave our customers flexibility. Just make sure whoever you work with is familiar with payment gateway integrations.
Happy to chat more if you need any other insights from someone who’s been there. Good luck with your project!
I’ve actually developed a similar bot for a client in the digital art space. It handled automated sales of exclusive digital prints through Telegram. The key challenge was integrating multiple payment gateways securely.
For your project, I’d recommend using the Telegram Bot API along with a robust backend to manage content and transactions. Python with the python-telegram-bot library could be a good starting point. You’ll need to implement content locking, payment processing, and user management.
One important consideration is content security. Make sure to implement proper encryption and access controls to prevent unauthorized sharing. Also, consider implementing a subscription model for recurring revenue.
If you’re interested in discussing further, I’d be happy to share more details and potentially work on this project.
hey amelial, i’ve worked on smthing similar before. key things to consider:
- content encryption is crucial
- user-friendly interface for browsing/buying
- reliable payment gateway integration (stripe works well)
- scalable backend to handle traffic spikes
dm me if u want more details or a demo. good luck with ur project!
