Vendorz: your own Telegram store

You want to sell on Telegram but have no developer and no budget for one. Vendorz builds a store right inside the messenger with no code or technical skill. You create the catalog, take orders and manage everything from a mini app. 🛒

Your own bot with your own name

The setup works like this: you create your own bot with the official bot creator, get a token and connect it to Vendorz. The store lives in your bot, and Vendorz provides the control panel.

That is handy because the storefront carries your name instead of someone else's. Customers see a bot they recognise, not an anonymous marketplace.

What you can sell and how it is organised

• Products: physical and digital, with prices and descriptions.
• Categories: sort the range into sections so shoppers find things quickly.
• Orders: all requests collect in one place.
• Discounts: promo codes for sales and regular customers.

Finding your first buyers

A store without traffic stays empty, so plan where customers will come from. That could be your channel, a group, social media or word of mouth.

Use clear photos and short descriptions, because people in a messenger decide quickly. Put the price, timing and delivery method right in the product card.

Fast replies to customers in the first minutes affect sales a lot, so switch on new order alerts.

Numbers and mailings

Built-in charts show how the shop is doing. They help you see which items sell and which sit idle.

Promotion tools listed for the service include referral programs, promotional messages to customers and multi-language support. That helps with an international audience.

Use mailings carefully: frequent messages annoy people, and spam complaints can lead to limits on your bot account.

Launching a shop in five steps

1. Create a bot with the official bot creator and save the token.
2. Open Vendorz with /start.
3. Connect the bot and fill in store details.
4. Add products, categories and prices.
5. Publish the store and tell your audience.

Keep the token secret: whoever knows it controls your bot.

Payments and seller safety

According to the project's posts, a store can accept cryptocurrency or Telegram Stars. Check fees and plans inside the app, since they can change.

For physical goods you handle delivery, returns and local law yourself. For digital goods, plan how you will deliver items and settle disputes.

Never hand your bot token to third parties, and refuse "help" from strangers who ask for panel access. Vendorz has a small audience, around 155 monthly active users, so start with a small range before you move a larger business over.
