My Telegram bot + your monetization methods

Recently I created a Telegram bot that connects 2 people for a chat. How it currently works is that it connects person A and person B but everything goes through a chatbot so those 2 people don't know who they are, they stay anonymous until they decide to give away personal data.

The good thing here is that Telegram has 500M+ users, people don't have to install new app and payments are done within Telegram

I learned how to create Telegram bot. If anyone has any monetization method, let's connect and monetize. Maybe there is some different bot that can be created and monetized. Let's brainstorm.

    I’d think of it slightly differently. Think like a two sided marketplace.

    A sort of connector / aggregator / match maker.

    Consistent themes that I notice on IH are

    1. Devs want too meet marketers/sales/business folks (and vice Versa)
    2. Devs looking for gigs (and vice versa)
    3. People looking for feedback on UI/UX (and vice versa)

    There are quite a few more that fit the connector model.

    Interesting business and monetisation models are possible and can be tested fairly quickly.

    That sounds fun. Haven't heard of any monetised chat bots, but I'm sure some do exist.

      There might be a way

        Yeah should be, you can take the users to some stripe payment page to unlock certain features. I ~think~ some Discord chat bots make money.
