Your menu and bookings inside Telegram

Guests open your menu or shop as a Mini App right in the chat with your bot, confirm visits with one button, and you get notified in Telegram. Orders land in the same «Orders», kitchen and POS as every other channel.

Free plan with no time limit. No card required.

What you get

Mini App storefront

Your menu or catalog opens inside Telegram with its theme and the guest’s language; deep links can open a specific location.

A bot that greets guests

The bot says hello and shows a «Menu» button, so a new guest is one tap from ordering.

Reminders with buttons

Guests subscribe to visit reminders and confirm or cancel with «I’ll come» / «Cancel» right in the chat; /bookings lists their bookings.

Owner notifications and chat

New bookings and cancellations come to your Telegram; conversations with guests live in Team chat → Guests.

How to connect

  1. 1 In the admin panel open the extension store → «Telegram shop» → «Set up».
  2. 2 Name the shop, create a bot in @BotFather and paste its token into the wizard.
  3. 3 The wizard configures the bot through the Telegram Bot API: description, «Menu» button and webhook.
  4. 4 Create the Mini App with /newapp in @BotFather — the wizard shows the values to enter. Progress is saved between steps.

Full steps with screenshots are in the setup guide. Setup guide →

What you need

  • A Telegram account and your own bot (created in @BotFather in a couple of minutes).
  • A separate bot if you also want to chat with guests: a bot can have only one webhook.
  • Telegram must be available in your country — where it is blocked, the card is hidden.

Honest limits

  • One webhook per bot: ordering and guest chat on one bot do not mix — use two bots.
  • The owner’s notification subscription link must not be published: anyone who opens it gets your notifications.
  • Telegram decides how the Mini App looks on old app versions; we follow its theme and buttons.

Limits come from our product map and setup guides and are updated as the integration develops.

Questions

Do guests need to install anything?

No. The Mini App opens inside Telegram, which the guest already has. The usual browser menu by QR code keeps working too.

Where do Telegram orders go?

Into the same order pipeline as the QR menu and website: «Orders», the kitchen display and the POS see them the same way.

Can I connect several locations?

Yes. Deep links can open a specific location, and each location has its own settings.
