Push notifications via Telegram

How Telegram casinos use push notifications through the Telegram API: informing players, activation, retention and automatic mailings.
Expert Nikolay Orlov

Through the Telegram API, you can send push notifications directly to the user's messenger - quickly, accurately and without losing coverage.

Example notification scenarios:
  • "Your balance has $10 cashback"
  • "New bonus available - activate before the end of the day!"
  • "You hit the tournament top - hold the position!"
  • 'The game's on! Join the crash round now"
