What TelegramRouter is
TelegramRouter sits between the Telegram channels you already follow and the channels you own. When a source channel posts, we read the message and re-send it to your destination channels, using the rules you configured. Everything runs on our servers: nothing is installed on your computer or your phone, and nothing has to stay open.
What it is not
TelegramRouter does not get you into channels, does not sell content and does not post anywhere your own account could not post. What you forward, and whether you are allowed to forward it, stays your responsibility.
What you need before you start
Five things, and you probably already have four of them.
- A Telegram account
- The one you use every day, on a phone that can receive its login code.
- Channels you already follow
- We can only read channels and groups your Telegram account is already a member of. TelegramRouter gives you access to no channel.
- A channel of yours to forward into
- Any channel or group where your account can post. Create one in Telegram first if you do not have it yet — it takes a minute.
- An active plan
- Basic or Pro, paid through Hotmart. Note down which email address you paid with: it is what unlocks the app.
- A browser
- Phone, tablet or computer, any operating system. There is nothing to download.
Setting it up, step by step
Five steps, and most people are through them in under ten minutes.
- 1
Choose a plan
Pick Basic or Pro and pay through Hotmart. The payment is handled entirely by Hotmart — your card details never reach us.
Watch out. Remember the email address you pay with. Your access is matched by that address and by nothing else.
- 2
Create your account
Sign up in the app with your email and a password. Open the confirmation email we send you, then sign in.
Watch out. Sign up with the same email you paid with, or the app cannot see your subscription.
- 3
Connect Telegram
Enter your country code and phone number. Telegram sends a 5-digit login code — it arrives inside the Telegram app itself, in the official Telegram service chat, not usually by SMS. If your account has two-step verification we then ask for your cloud password, which goes straight to Telegram and is never stored. Last, switch on “Listen to new messages”.
Watch out. While listening is off nothing is read at all: the app looks connected and nothing is ever forwarded.
- 4
Pick the channels to listen to
Open Channels and add sources from the list of channels and groups your Telegram account belongs to. A channel you add is listened to; everything else is ignored.
Watch out. The list of names comes live from Telegram, so it needs the connection from the previous step to be working.
- 5
Create your first forwarding rule
On a listened channel, add a rule: give it a name, choose the destination channel, and — optionally — a template. The moment the rule is active, new messages in the source start landing in the destination.
Watch out. The destination must be a channel where your account can post. A rule pointed at a channel you cannot post to records an error for every message instead of delivering.
That is the whole setup
From here it runs on its own. Every forwarded message appears under Messages as it happens, and every session event and error is listed under Activity.
Forwarding rules
A rule belongs to one listened channel and delivers to one destination. A channel can carry several rules, so the same source can feed several of your channels at once — each with its own template.
- Rule name
- For your own reference — it is how the rule appears in your history.
- Destination channel
- The Telegram channel or group the messages are delivered to. Your account must be able to post there.
- Template (optional)
- Leave it empty to forward the original text exactly as it arrived. Fill it to wrap the message in your own text — see the next section.
- Active
- A paused rule keeps its configuration but forwards nothing. Pausing a rule is instant and reversible.
Deleting a rule never deletes its history: everything it forwarded stays under Messages, labelled with the rule's name.
Message templates
A template wraps the original message in your own text. Write it once on the rule and every forwarded message uses it. Placeholders in curly braces are replaced when the message is sent.
- {message}
- The original message text. A template without it forwards only your wrapper, so you almost always want it in there.
- {channel_name}
- The source channel's title, as Telegram reports it.
- {date}
- When the original message was posted.
- [conditional blocks]
- Anything inside square brackets is dropped entirely when a placeholder inside it has no value — so a header that mentions the source disappears cleanly when Telegram reports no title.
Example
The template “[From {channel_name}:] {message}” delivers the original text under a “From …” header — and when the source has no title, the whole header is dropped instead of showing an empty “From :”.
The app, screen by screen
What each screen of your dashboard is for.
What a message's status means
- Forwarded
- Delivered to the destination channel.
- Error
- The delivery failed. The usual reason is that your account cannot post in the destination — the row shows the exact error.
Plans and what each one covers
Both plans forward an unlimited number of messages — we never charge per message. What changes is how many sources and rules the plan covers, and how quickly support answers.
| What you get | Basic$19/month | ProMost popular$39/month |
|---|---|---|
| Messages forwarded | Unlimited | Unlimited |
| Source channels | 3 | Unlimited |
| Forwarding rules | 5 | Unlimited |
| Message templates | Included | Included |
| Forwarding history | Included | Included |
| Support | Telegram chat | Priority Telegram chat |
Changing plan is not self-service yet: message support on Telegram and we will move you across.
What it can and cannot do
The short version, so you know what you are buying before you buy it.
It can
- Read the channels and groups your Telegram account already belongs to.
- Re-send their new messages to your own channels the moment they arrive, with nothing running on your side.
- Listen to several sources at once, each with its own rules.
- Send one source to several destinations — one rule per destination.
- Wrap every forwarded message in your own template, per rule.
- Keep a record of every forward attempt, including the ones that failed and why.
- Be stopped at any moment — switch listening off, pause a rule, or remove a channel.
It cannot
- Get you into a channel you are not already a member of.
- Deliver to a channel where your account cannot post. The rule records an error instead.
- Forward photos, videos, documents or voice notes yet — today it forwards text.
- Go back for messages posted while listening was off.
- Mirror edits or deletions. A message is forwarded once, as it was when it arrived.
- Produce a native “Forwarded from” header. Messages are re-sent as new posts from your account.
- Bypass a channel's content protection. Telegram may block reading or re-posting from channels whose owners restrict it.
- Bypass Telegram's own limits. Sending too fast into a channel can be rate-limited by Telegram itself.
Filters (forward only messages that match), AI rewriting and media forwarding are planned features — they are listed here so you do not buy expecting them today.
Your account, your data
What we ask for, what we do with it, and what we never keep.
- Your Telegram session
- Connecting is the same as adding a new device: a login code, plus your cloud password if you use two-step verification — that goes straight to Telegram and is never stored. The session lets us read the channels you selected and post to your destinations. Disconnect from the Telegram page here, or from Telegram → Settings → Devices, whenever you like.
- The messages we handle
- We store the text of messages from your listened channels: it is what your forwarding history shows, and without it an error could not be investigated. Channels you did not add are only ever logged as “a message arrived”, with the channel id partly masked and no content.
- Your TelegramRouter password
- Changed only through a one-time link we email you. The app never asks for your current password in a form.
- Switching everything off
- Turning listening off and disconnecting Telegram stay available even if your plan has ended, so you can always stop the router. To delete your account and its history entirely, message support.
When something does not look right
The seven things that actually go wrong, in the order they usually go wrong.
Billing, renewal and cancelling
Plans are monthly, and nothing here locks you in.
- Renewal
- Plans renew automatically through Hotmart on the same day each month.
- Cancelling
- Cancel from your Hotmart purchase page whenever you like. Your access stays until the end of the period you have already paid for.
- After a plan ends
- Nothing is deleted: your Telegram session, your channels and your rules are kept, and they are all there again the moment a plan is active. In the meantime you lose access to the dashboard — so switch listening off before you go if you want everything to stop.
- Receipts and refunds
- Payments, invoices and refund requests are handled by Hotmart, where the plan was bought.
Still stuck?
Support runs on Telegram, which is where you already are. Both plans include it and Pro is answered first. Tell us the email on your account and what you were doing, and we will look at it with you.
One last thing
The router re-posts content from channels you chose into channels you own. Whether you are allowed to re-post it — the source's rules, copyright, Telegram's terms — is your call and your responsibility. When in doubt, ask the source channel's owner.
