2022-05-12 17:39:40 New Features of Web-Bots

Web-bots will be able to send payment invoices as link. They can be opened on browser, forwarded to friends, or posted to a channel. Probably, not only web-bots, but simple ones will have opportunity to create such links.

Previously, invoices were issued only using a special bot (for example, the "Donate" button under the message).

‌Web-bots will be able to open an invoice and track its status (paid, canceled, completed with an error) and provide information about it.

A clickable link like https://t.me/invoice/tginfo will allow you to make payments in a few clicks.

Links like tg://invoice?slug=tginfo will be available directly inside Telegram

Such links will start working in the next updates of the messenger, but for now they redirect the user to an unknown @invoice channel. Open / Comment
