Starting today, advertisements will not only appear at the bottom of channels but may also appear between posts in the channels. This news has also been confirmed by the agency OneSpot, which focuses on Telegram advertisements, and other media.
Unlike regular posts, the advertisements will have a "cross" button on the right side (as shown in the cover image) to close the advertisement.
Specific details:
The display of advertisements is determined by the platform: advertisers cannot choose the specific location of the advertisements themselves; everything is automatically arranged by the Telegram platform.
Traces of early testing: Two years ago, the function to manage advertisements between posts already appeared in the code of the Telegram desktop client. Since then, some users have occasionally seen advertisements between posts due to technical issues or system failures.
In November 2021, Telegram began inserting advertisements at the bottom of channels with more than 1000 subscribers.
Only channel owners with a boost level of 50 can actively disable channel advertisements on Telegram; otherwise, channel owners cannot intervene in the insertion of advertisements.
