Working with influencers and gray traffic sources in Telegram casinos
Click to expand / collapse

Telegram casino relies not only on official advertising. With restrictions on the promotion of gambling products, especially in social networks and search engines, alternative and gray sources of traffic become the basis for scaling. One of the most effective approaches is cooperation with influencers and the use of ad hoc promotion channels.


Influencers: trust and organics

Bloggers, streamers and influencers play a huge role in attracting targeted traffic, especially if the niche is crypt, gambling, betting or cart.

What works:
  • Telegram WebApp review with interface demonstration
  • Launching a crash game live (YouTube, Twitch, Telegram)
  • Mention of bonus and promo code (e.g. $5 without deposit)
  • Direct link in → bot or WebApp description
Payment formats:
  • CPA/CPL per player
  • Fix for a post or stream
  • % of turnover or deposits (RevShare)

Gray traffic sources: how and why

Gray traffic is channels that do not always comply with the policy of advertising systems, but give a quick and cheap result:

How Telegram casino works with this

Anti-bot filters are used (JavaScript, captchas, geo/IP filtering)

Gaskets and pre-pages are configured to cut off non-target transitions

Trackers (Binom, Keitaro) collect statistics for each source

WebApp and bot adapted for quick conversion: start, bonus, game

UTM + initData Telegram tags associate traffic with ref ID

Working with influencers and gray traffic sources is a powerful growth lever for Telegram casinos, especially at the start or when entering new markets. The main thing is to correctly build a funnel, provide protection against fraud and competently filter traffic before entering WebApp. This approach can bring thousands of registrations per day at minimal cost.
