How much does it actually cost to launch Telegram Ads for a crypto project, and what ROI should I expect?
Entry via TRAFFIX starts at a $500 deposit; most crypto tests run $1,500–3,000 before you can judge creative/geo. In our 2026 platform aggregate, median 90-day ROI for compliant crypto campaigns is about 80–180% — not guaranteed. See: /guide/telegram-ads-benchmarks-2026.
Can I start Telegram Ads with $500 or will I just burn it?
$500 is the minimum cabinet deposit, not a recommended test budget. For most niches you need $500 deposit plus $500–1,500 in spend. Crypto and gambling usually need $2,000+ for a meaningful first test.
What is the catch with the $500 minimum — are there hidden fees?
No hidden platform fee from TRAFFIX on the deposit — you pay for Telegram Ads impressions (CPM auction). The catch is test size: $500 alone often does not produce enough data. Unused balance can be refunded per terms.
Euro or TON cabinet — what should I pick if I promote an exchange or wallet?
Euro: 32 countries, external landing URLs, stricter moderation. TON: pay in TON, links inside Telegram (channels, bots, mini apps). We recommend after niche review at Traffix.
Will Telegram Ads work for gambling / iGaming or get banned immediately?
Gambling is high-risk but allowed with compliant creatives, geo, and licenses. Expect higher CPM (median €6–18 in 2026 TRAFFIX data). Pre-moderation before submit reduces rejections.
How long until I see first leads after launch?
Cabinet ~24h after brief and deposit. First clicks often same day; stable CPA usually needs 3–7 days and enough spend. Education: 2–5 weeks payback; SaaS: 8–14 weeks.
What happens if moderation rejects my ad — do I lose the money?
No charge for undelivered impressions. Edit and resubmit. TRAFFIX checks copy upfront; moderation typically 1–4 hours.
When is Telegram Ads honestly NOT worth it?
Low LTV, no funnel, ultra-narrow geo, or policy violations. See: /guide/when-telegram-ads-not-worth-it.
How is TRAFFIX different from setting up Telegram Ads myself?
Official reseller platform: Euro/TON/Stars cabinets, Pro panel, pre-moderation, ~24h setup from $500. Self-serve or managed on the same stack.
Can I send traffic to my website from Telegram Ads?
Yes in Euro cabinet (with moderation). TON defaults to in-Telegram only. High-risk needs compliant landings.
Who runs the campaigns — can I do it myself or do I need your team?
Both: TRAFFIX Pro self-serve or managed creatives, moderation, optimization, reporting.
How do I pay — card, wire, crypto?
Crypto top-up (USDT, USDC); TON cabinet in TON. Minimum $500 via TRAFFIX. Refund of unused balance per terms.
What is TRAFFIX?
TRAFFIX is the official Telegram Ads reseller platform: Euro, TON, and Stars cabinets, Pro panel, pre-moderation, and compliant high-risk verticals from a $500 deposit.
How is Telegram Ads different from buying posts in channels?
Telegram Ads is Telegram’s official ad network: your ad is shown in public channels with 1,000+ subscribers. A direct post buy is a deal with a channel admin — no unified targeting settings or platform analytics.
Euro or TON cabinet — where to start?
Most clients start with the Euro cabinet: ads in 32 countries, links to your site, landing page, channel, or bot. The TON cabinet is paid in TON crypto with links inside Telegram only. We’ll recommend the right option on the brief.
Minimum deposit and setup time?
Reseller platform cabinet onboarding via TRAFFIX starts from $500. Top-ups in the advertiser dashboard after activation start from $100 (USDT/TON). We open the cabinet in ~24 hours on average after the brief. Complex niches may take up to 5 business days.
How does pricing work?
Cost depends on niche and competition. In most cases, the price per 1,000 impressions starts at a few euros. You pay for impressions — the higher your bid, the more often your ad is shown.
What does an ad look like?
Text up to 160 characters and one button. The Euro cabinet supports an optional 1280×720 banner. Standard Telegram Ads units don’t include video.
Where will my ads appear?
Only in public Telegram channels with at least 1,000 subscribers. Not in private groups, private channels, or DMs.
What targeting options exist?
Language, topics, and a list of specific channels. In the Euro cabinet — also countries, regions, and major cities.
Can I link to an external website?
Euro cabinet: yes, to a site or landing page (stricter moderation). TON cabinet: by default, only links to Telegram channels and bots.
How long does moderation take?
Usually 1–4 hours. We check copy upfront so you resubmit less often.
One account for all countries?
Euro cabinets are often tied to a country or region. Several countries may need separate cabinets — we’ll discuss this on the brief.
How do I track leads?
UTM tags on your site, links to a Telegram bot, and goals in your analytics. We help set this up so you see where leads come from.
What budget for the first test?
Plan $500–2,000 for the first test, depending on niche. You need enough data to see what works, then increase budget on winning ads.
Do you run campaigns for us?
Yes: we write ads, help with moderation, optimize daily, and report results. Or you run everything yourself in our Pro panel.
Payment and refunds?
Top up your cabinet in crypto (USDT, USDC). The TON cabinet is topped up in TON. Minimum $500 via TRAFFIX. Refund of unused balance per terms.
How do I contact support?
Telegram Traffix — we’ll help with launch, moderation, and billing. After registration, your @username is linked to your cabinet.
