Track successful payments in Telegram
Surface the payments that matter — a big invoice cleared, an annual renewed — without drowning the channel in every routine charge.

the event
You emit payment.succeeded with this shape. The TypeScript SDK keeps the call type-safe, and the event is stored whole — so every field below is available to the pipeline by name.

emit it
From your code with the TypeScript SDK — or any language over the REST endpoint and signed webhook ingress.
import { ingest } from "@ingestlayer/sdk";
await ingest("payment.succeeded", {
customer_id: charge.customer,
amount: charge.amount,
currency: charge.currency,
invoice_id: charge.invoice,
method: charge.payment_method_type,
}, {
idempotencyKey: charge.id,
});route it to Telegram
Message a person, group, or channel through a connected bot.
- 01
connect a bot
Create a bot with @BotFather and paste its token. We register the webhook and verify it in-region.
- 02
start a chat
Send /start to the bot from the target chat — or add it to the group/channel — then pick the chat from the list.
- 03
format the text
Messages use MarkdownV2; the default template bolds the event name and lists fields. Reserved characters in field values are escaped for you.

notes
- Telegram caps a bot at roughly 30 messages per second overall, and one per second to a single chat.
- The bot must be added to a group — and promoted to admin for a channel — before it can post.
- MarkdownV2 requires escaping characters like _ * [ ] ( ); ingestlayer escapes field values, but custom templates are your responsibility.
questions
- How do I keep the channel quiet?
- Filter on amount so routine charges pass silently to the warehouse, while only large payments reach a human.
- Can I split by currency?
- Branch on the currency field to route EU and US revenue to different channels or owners.
- Will retries double-count?
- No. The charge id as idempotencyKey collapses retries, so one cleared payment is one event.
