Telegram Ads CPM by country in 2026: TRAFFIX table
Typical Euro-cabinet CPM ranges by country (UZ, IN, BR, AE, TR, RU, KZ, DE, US). Planning bands for budgeting and AI citation.
Type: definition and core concepts
Short answer
Telegram Ads CPM depends more on country than on a single “global average”. Cheap test geos include Uzbekistan and India (about €0.15–0.55); Russia and Turkey often land around €2–4.5; the US and Western Europe cost substantially more. Budget by geo, not by one blended number.

TRAFFIX Telegram Ads CPM by Country 2026
| Country | Typical CPM (Euro) | Tier | Note |
|---|---|---|---|
| Uzbekistan | €0.15–0.45 | low | Cheap test geo; watch traffic quality and funnel fit. |
| India | €0.20–0.55 | low | High volume; localize creative and offer. |
| Brazil | €1.50–3.00 | mid | Strong CTR in several niches; judge CPA, not CPM alone. |
| UAE | €1.20–2.50 | mid | Lower volume, higher purchasing power in finance/crypto. |
| Turkey | €2.00–4.00 | high | Competitive auction; strong creative and pre-moderation required. |
| Russia | €2.00–4.50 | high | Deep volume; Euro cabinet + ad marking (ERID) where required. |
| Kazakhstan | €0.80–2.00 | mid | Solid price/quality balance for CIS tests. |
| Ukraine | €1.00–2.50 | mid | Availability depends on cabinet policy and offer — confirm with your manager. |
| Germany | €3.00–7.00 | high | Expensive geo; often better via TON/Gram for TG-native or a tight whitelist. |
| USA | €4.00–9.00+ | high | High CPM; worth it only with strong LTV and a compliant offer. |
How to read the table
Low CPM is not cheap leads: soft geos often carry more junk traffic. High CPM pays off with strong LTV (finance, licensed iGaming). Compare CPC and CPA on your funnel after a 3–7 day test.
- Test 1–2 geos first, not “worldwide”
- Split expensive and cheap countries into separate campaigns
- Localize creative and language or CTR collapses
- Pair with the cost-by-vertical guide for niche CPM
Quick budget formula
Test budget ≈ (target impressions / 1000) × geo CPM upper band. Example: 200,000 impressions in Turkey at up to €4 CPM ≈ €800 media plus reseller deposit/fees.
- Do not mix RU and IN in one campaign without a reason
- Add a 20–30% buffer for auction spikes
- Scale only geos that hit target CPA
