Scope

"By joining the P2PL Program, you acknowledge and agree that Telegram may use your phone number as a relay for a maximum of 150 OTP SMS messages per month. You understand and agree that SMS messages sent from your number as part of the P2PL Program may incur charges from your mobile carrier or service provider. You expressly agree to bear any such charges, including but not limited to carrier rates, additional fees and any international SMS charges that may apply from time to time. For clarity, you acknowledge and agree that these expenses will be covered by you alone, and that Telegram will not provide a reimbursement at any point before, during or after your participation in P2PL. You further agree that you will not attempt to obstruct or otherwise interfere with the delivery of the aforementioned SMS in any manner. In consideration of your continued active participation in the P2PL Program, Telegram will reward you with a monthly Telegram Premium subscription each time you meet a quota of successfully sent SMS. You understand and agree that this quota may differ by country and is subject to change at any time without notice at our sole discretion."

Telegram Business (Swiftgram)

Latest iOS source code revealed upcoming Business-related features. I've compiled Swiftgram with these changes to show you the demo.
Some rumors say TG Business will be available for Telegram Premium users.

Location: Display the location of your business on your account.

Opening Hours: Show to your customers when you are open for business.

Quick Replies: Set up shortcuts with rich text and media to respond to messages faster.

Greeting Messages: Create greetings that will be automatically sent to new customers.

Away Messages: Define messages that are automatically sent when you are off.

Chatbots: Add any third-party chatbots that will process customer interactions.

Telegram Business Chatbots integration
Business accounts will be able to add a Telegram bot to process incoming messages.

🤖 Bot API Update: There's a chance Telegram will rollout a Bot API update with a better integration for "Customer Support" bots. hey will act like a "middleman" between customer and a business account. Customers will see they're talking to a real User account.
We may see:

• Full access to new messages. Business accounts can set up filters on what chats can be accessed by Chatbot.

• Option to automatically reply as bot: chatbots will be able to immediately reply to the user (with AI and any automation)

• Option to restrict automatic replies: Business accounts will be able to restrict automatic replies and process messages manually or via other systems like Intercom, Zendesk, Salesforce, etc.

• Business opening hours: Chatbots can be programmed to reply something like "We're closed today and will be back on Monday. Don't worry, we got your message!"

• Making money: This is an interesting opportunity for Businesses and Telegram Bot developers to make some money. Is it time to create paid integrations and Business support bots with some AI answers? (@devs, @BotTalk, @botoid, @devshelper are you watching!?)

Remember: All of these are just assumptions based on the latest Telegram iOS source code.
