Telegram Mini App development
A mobile product with its own interface, opened inside Telegram.
A Mini App gives you screens, forms and navigation inside Telegram. It fits tasks where messages become awkward: browsing a catalogue, managing a profile, comparing options or using a product workspace.
My work includes Antigram App, a Mini App built around an existing media audience, and Dantiva, where the website, bot and Mini App share an account and ledger. For a new project, we choose the smallest user flow that is worth launching and agree on the backend it needs.
Who this is for
- A product or community whose users already come through Telegram.
- A service that needs a catalogue, personal account or several connected screens.
- A founder validating a mobile product before considering a standalone native application.
If the whole task fits into a few messages, start with a bot. A Mini App needs an interface and backend work that should earn their place in the scope.
What you get
- The main user flow and a mobile interface suited to Telegram.
- Telegram user identification with server-side checks.
- Backend logic, storage and integrations defined in the brief.
- The bot entry point and agreed navigation between the bot and Mini App.
- Checks in Telegram on mobile and desktop, deployment and a handover.
How it runs
Define what users should finish, which screens they need and how they enter the app.
Develop the mobile screens and connect Telegram user identification.
Add the agreed data, integrations and payment flow if it is part of the brief.
Check navigation, loading and failure states on mobile and desktop, then publish.
Questions people ask first
- How much does a Telegram Mini App cost?
- My starting price for a Telegram Mini App is 1,000 EUR. The final quote depends on screens, backend logic, integrations and payments. Hosting and ongoing support are agreed separately.
- What is the difference between a bot and a Mini App?
- A bot works through messages and buttons. A Mini App opens a web interface inside Telegram. They can work together: the bot brings the user in and sends notifications, while the Mini App handles the screens.
- Can the Mini App share an account with a website?
- Yes. Dantiva uses this approach. For your project, linking identities and deciding which system owns the data are part of the backend scope.
- Can you add payments?
- Payments can be included. The method depends on what you sell and Telegram's current platform requirements. We confirm the payment flow during scoping before implementing it.
- Can we launch a small version first?
- Yes. We can begin with one main flow and add features after testing it with users. A complex marketplace, subscription system or multiple user roles need their own scope and timeline.
Examples from my work
