Joomla has a unique position in the CMS market. While WordPress dominates blogs and Shopify dominates e-commerce, Joomla powers government portals, university websites, NGOs, and mid-size organizations. Many of these organizations operate in countries where Telegram is the dominant messaging platform.
A government portal in Kazakhstan publishes regulations and accepts citizen inquiries. Citizens use Telegram for everything. They want to ask about document requirements, office hours, and procedures via Telegram, not through a web form that leads to a 3-day email response.
A university in Iran has a Joomla website for admissions and student services. Students live on Telegram. Course schedules, exam updates, and registration questions all happen on Telegram already. The university website should connect to that conversation.
Joomla's built-in contact component sends emails. In markets where people check Telegram 50 times a day and email twice, that is a dead end. Telegram gives you instant, two-way communication with the people your Joomla site serves.
Boei adds Telegram to Joomla in 5 minutes. Paste a snippet in your template or use a Custom HTML module. Works with Joomla 4 and 5, Cassiopeia, and every third-party template. No extension conflicts.
Government portals and university sites on Joomla handle thousands of repetitive questions. What documents do I need? When is the office open? How do I register? AI answers these from your Joomla articles and published documents. Citizens and students get instant answers on Telegram. Your staff handles only the complex cases that need human judgment.
Government and education sites serve people who are cautious about sharing personal information. Telegram's username-based contact model is ideal. A citizen messages @cityoffice without giving their phone number. A student messages @university_admissions without sharing personal details. The barrier to reaching out drops dramatically. More people get the help they need, and your organization handles it through a proper shared inbox instead of scattered Telegram conversations on personal phones.
Custom HTML module or template snippet. Works with Joomla 4 and 5
In your Boei dashboard, open your widget and click the Install tab. Select Joomla and copy the installation code.
Tip: The Install tab also offers a landing page link, QR code, and iframe embed.
Log into your Joomla website as administrator. Follow Step 5 for Joomla 4 or Step 6 for Joomla 5.
Congrats, you are done!

Joomla has few Telegram options. Here is what exists
| Boei | JivoChat | Smartsupp | Joomla Contact | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Telegram support | Full (AI + inbox) | Yes (basic) | ✗ | ✗ |
| AI chatbot | Trained on Joomla articles | ✗ | Extra cost | ✗ |
| Username-only contact | Yes (Telegram) | ✗ | ✗ | ✗ |
| Department routing | ✓ Yes | ✓ Yes | ✓ Yes | Basic |
| Multi-language | 95+ auto-translate | ✗ | ✗ | Manual |
| Total channels | 50+ | 12 | 3 | Email only |
| Price | from $11/mo | Free (limited) | EUR 19.50/mo | Free |
| Joomla 5 support | ✓ Yes | ✓ Yes | ✓ Yes | ✓ Yes |
Bottom line: JivoChat supports Telegram but has no AI and charges per agent at scale. Smartsupp does not support Telegram. Joomla's built-in contact sends emails that go unanswered for days. Boei gives you Telegram with AI, department routing, multi-language support, and 50+ channels. From $11/mo with unlimited team seats.
A city portal in Uzbekistan publishes permit requirements, office hours, and application forms on Joomla. Citizens ask on Telegram: "What documents do I need for a building permit?" AI answers from the published articles. The citizen gets a response in seconds instead of waiting 3 days for an email.
A university in Kazakhstan runs admissions on Joomla. Students ask about deadlines, required documents, and tuition via Telegram. AI handles 80% of these repetitive questions. Admissions staff only deal with special cases like transfer credits and financial aid appeals.
A Joomla store using VirtueMart sells electronics to Central Asian customers. Buyers ask about warranty, shipping, and payment methods via Telegram. AI answers product questions from the catalog. The store owner responds to custom requests at their convenience.
A Joomla business directory serves a regional market. Visitors want to contact listed businesses quickly. Telegram is their default messaging app. The directory adds a Telegram widget so visitors can inquire about services without leaving the site.
