Channel Boosts FAQ

Channels can now share stories, customize their messages and more. If you're a Telegram Premium subscriber, you can help your favorite channels by boosting them.

With your Telegram Premium subscription, you get 4 boosts on top of your other perks – which you can give to any channel. Channels that reach Level 1 are able to post one story per day, which increases with each additional level. At Level 5, they can choose a channel color, giving their messages a unique look.

Q: Why do bigger channels need more boosts?
A: To reach Level 1, a channel currently needs boosts from 0.1% of its subscribers. So, more subscribers mean more total boosts are required.

Q: How many levels are there?
A: There are 100 levels. A Level 100 channel can share up to 100 stories a day.

Q: How long does my boost last?
A: Once you boost a channel, it keeps your boost unless your Premium expires or you decide to boost another channel.

Q: Can I switch my boost to a different channel?
A: Yes, you can move your boost to another channel every 24 hours.
