How to Join Chats

Learn how to join premium channels and groups managed by TGmembership. Get step-by-step instructions on using the /join module and entering chats.

Joining a TGmembership-managed chat (channel or group) requires either a membership or the chat to be marked as free. To begin, open the /join module by clicking the "Join" button or typing /join in the chat. If you've just subscribed and paid for a membership, the bot will automatically attach join buttons underneath your confirmation message.

FAQ

Why can't my users enter chats automatically after paying for TGmembership?

Unfortunately, Telegram's bot platform does not allow bots to add users to groups or channels. As a workaround, our bots generate unique invite links that users can use to join the chat with a single click. We strive to make the process as easy and seamless as possible for our users.

Can my users generate invite links more than once?

Yes, they can generate as many links as they need while their memberships are active.

What if they share their invite link with someone else?

No need to worry - our bots have safeguards in place to prevent unauthorized access to your chats. If someone tries to use an unauthorized link to join, the bot will block them and notify you of their attempt, including who created the link and who tried to use it.

How can I approve my users' join requests manually?

If you prefer to manually approve users' requests to join your group or channel, it's easy to switch to manual approval. Simply open the /settings menu of your bot, navigate to Group Management, and select Join Requests. From there, you can choose to switch from automatic approval by the bot to manual approval by any admin of your chats.
