Telegram ad revenue calculator: estimate your 50% share.

Telegram shares half of the revenue from its official sponsored messages with owners of eligible public channels. Enter your monthly ad impressions and a CPM to see what that could pay in Gram and dollars.

How Telegram ad revenue sharing works

  • Who qualifies: owners of public channels with at least 1,000 subscribers, according to Telegram's announcement of the program.
  • The share: 50% of the revenue Telegram earns from valid impressions of sponsored messages shown in the channel. Telegram's content creator terms say the share can change.
  • The price: advertisers set a CPM, the price per 1,000 views of their ad. On the Telegram Ad Platform the minimum is 0.1 Gram (formerly Toncoin).
  • Who sees ads: Telegram Premium subscribers do not see sponsored messages, so a channel with many Premium readers shows fewer ads.
  • Getting paid: rewards are withdrawn through Fragment. Check your numbers under Channel Settings, Statistics, Monetization.

The formula

Monthly share = ad impressions ÷ 1,000 × CPM × 50%. For example, 200,000 impressions at a CPM of 0.5 Gram earn 100 Gram of ad revenue, and the owner's share is 50 Gram.

Ad impressions are not the same as post views: not every visit shows a sponsored message. Use the numbers in your Monetization statistics as soon as they appear.

Other ways a channel earns

Ad revenue is one source. Stars from paid posts and reactions can be converted with the Telegram Stars calculator, and a channel's total value can be estimated with the channel value calculator. If revenue does not appear at all, see why a channel shows no ad revenue.
