Telegram channel monetization

Some months ago, telegram announced as part of their rewards system that they would start rewarding creators by showing adverts on public channels for which, the owners will be rewarded in TON cryptocurrency. Fortunately, the telegram channel monetization officially kicked off in April.

Key Takeaways

  • All telegram channels with up to 1,000 subscribers and above are automatically eligible for the monetization.
  • Advertisers pick and choose channels where they want their adverts to be placed on, so having an active and large channel puts you at an advantageous position.
  • The minimum withdrawal amount from telegram channels is 10 TON, so once you’ve earned this amount, you wait for 3 days for the option to Withdraw Via Fragment to appear.
  • Illegal activities can make your revenue be deducted randomly refer to the FAQs at the end of this page for better understanding.

An aspect that’s still causing confusion is, the eligibility criteria and how channel owners can confirm their eligibility for the telegram monetization. So in this article, we will be having a look at all you need to know about the telegram channel monetization, including eligibility criteria and how to check the eligibility of your channel immediately.

How Does Telegram Channel Monetization Work?

How does telegram channel monetization work

According to telegram, the channel monetization is aimed at rewarding creators with some money for being active. Telegram users who have public channels don’t have to do anything special, adverts will be shown on their channels when advertiser picks their channels for ad placement and they will be rewarded with as much as 50% of the total amount spent by the advertiser.

What this means is that, if an advertiser selects your channel for advert placement on telegram and spends 10 TON Coins, you will be rewarded with 5 Ton coins. It’s the most interesting profit sharing scheme in the world currently but there’s a catch. Just owning a channel doesn’t qualify for the reward system, there is another requirement you have to meet and that is what we will discuss shortly.

Eligibility Criteria

In the announcement, telegram also made it clear that only Channel owners who have up to 1,000 subscribers will be eligible for the new reward system put in place.

As far as the announcement is concerned the 1,000 minimum subscribers is the only requirement but from my analysis, I discovered that at the moment, channels that have been monetized are big, active channels. So just having 1k subs may not qualify you for any advert placement, partly because the advertisers are the ones to pick and choose when it comes to where their ads will be shown.

This automatically means that the 1k subs requirement is just one out of numerous indices to consider. No advertiser will like to place his or her advert on an inactive channel or any channel that doesn’t post legitimate contents. So if you would like to be fully qualified for the monetization, there might be need to invest more time and energy into delivering legitimate and enticing contents to your audience; at least for the advertisers to find your channel attractive enough for their ads to be shown.

From the explanation, telegram doesn’t in any way decide where the ads will be shown, so it’s left for the creators to make their channels healthy and active enough for the advertisers to pick.

How to Check For Eligibility

Simply open your telegram channel, go to the Channel settings > Statistics > there you will see the Stats, Boosts and Finally, Monetization.

How to check if your telegram channel is eligible for monetization

Tap on Monetization to see the balance and breakdown of your rewards and an option to turn off ads on your channel; feature currently available for channels at level 50 and above.

But if you have up to 1,000 subscribers and still don’t find the monetization, ensure you are logged in with the account you used to create the channel. Ordinary admins won’t be able to access the monetization feature.

Minimum Withdrawal

The minimum withdrawal amount from a telegram channel is 10 TON, which at the time of writing this piece is nearly $50. So the earnings will remain in the available rewards and total rewards till it gets to this amount, then the option to Collect via Fragment will appear.

Click on it and you will be taken to fragment to connect TON wallet and withdraw your rewards.
