Telegram will have a paid subscription to disable ads

Recently, advertising appeared in the Telegram messenger - official advertisements in large channels.

And now founder Pavel Durov has announced a paid subscription that allows you to get rid of advertising.

What does it mean?

They promise to introduce a subscription that will allow you to turn off advertising by the end of this month. How much it will cost and whether it will offer any additional features is still unknown.

“We have already started working on this newfeature and expect its launch this month. It can be issued in the form of an inexpensive subscription, which will allow any user to directly financially support the development of Telegram and never see official advertisements in the channels,” Durov explained.

In addition, the authors of some channels will be able to turn off advertisements.

“At the moment we are calculating economicconditions for this option. “Soon advertisers will be able to place an “invisible” ad in any channel, which, provided the cost of display is sufficient, will lead to the absence of ads in that channel,” noted the founder of the messenger.

Let us remind you that advertising in Telegram, in contrastfrom competitors, as unobtrusive as possible. Ads are not shown in chat lists, personal conversations or groups - only in large channels with an audience of 1000 or more subscribers. Messages are small (no more than 160 characters) and contain only text without external links or photos.
