Do I need to order a bot separately?

No. The entry point — a bot or a channel button that opens the app — is included in the Mini App price. If you also need a conversational bot with its own flows, that is a separate service from $150.

Can it take payments in Telegram?

Yes, the payments module is +$80: the client pays without leaving the app, and you track payments in the admin panel.

Does a Mini App work on iPhone and Android?

Yes — everywhere Telegram runs: iPhone, Android, desktop and the web version. It is one app with no separate builds per platform.

How long does development take?

7–14 days depending on the number of screens and integrations. The deadline is fixed in the contract together with the price.

What a Telegram App is

A Telegram App (Mini App) is a full application that opens inside Telegram: screens, a catalog, a cart, a personal account. The interface feels like a mobile app — without the App Store, Google Play or any installs.

Users open it in one tap from a chat, a channel or a bot button. Sign-in happens automatically through the Telegram account: no registrations, passwords or SMS — so a purchase or booking is 2–3 steps shorter.

Your audience is already in Telegram — nobody has to be convinced to install anything. Development starts at $350 — several times cheaper than a mobile app.
