Add the LaunchPass Bot to your Channels or Groups

You will need to add the LaunchPass Telegram Bot to every channel or group you would like to sell access to.

Adding LaunchPass to Telegram Groups

Step 1: Open the Telegram App and click on the Name of the Group to edit the settings.

Step 2: In your Group, add the LaunchPass Bot as a member.

Step 3: Add LaunchPass Bot as an Administrator to your Group

Click "Edit" in the top right hand corner to navigate to your Group's settings page.

Navigate to the Administrators section within the settings and then search for the LaunchPass bot.

Add the previously added member ‘LaunchPass bot’ to the group with an administrator role. We highly recommend leaving the default permissions under "What Can This Admin Do?" toggled on. The mandatory minimum permissions needed are Ban Users and Invite Users via Link.


Now head back to your LaunchPass dashboard. The Group(s) you've just added the LaunchPass bot as an admin to are now available to select from the dropdown!


Adding LaunchPass to Telegram Channels

Step 1: Open the Telegram App and click on the Name of the Channel to edit the settings.


Step 2: Double-check that your channel is private.

Click "Edit" in the top right corner to access additional channel settings

If the channel is public, change the 'Channel Type' to private by clicking on 'Channel type'. Then click on the 'Administrators' at the bottom.

Step 3: Add the LaunchPass Bot as a Channel Administrator

Click Add Admin, then search for the ‘LaunchPass bot’ and add it to the channel with an administrator role. Leave the default permissions under "What Can This Admin Do?" toggled on.


Now head back to your LaunchPass dashboard. The Channels you've just added the LaunchPass bot as an admin to are now available to select from the dropdown!
