Why Your Shopify Store Needs Telegram

Telegram has 900 million monthly active users and is the preferred messaging app for customers in Russia, Central Asia, Latin America, and the crypto/tech community. If your Shopify store sells internationally or targets tech-savvy buyers, Telegram is not optional — it is expected.

For e-commerce, Telegram offers advantages over email: 2GB file transfers let customers send product photos without compression, username-only contact means no phone number sharing, and messages sync across all devices instantly. Customers start a conversation on mobile and continue on desktop without losing context.

Shopify stores using Telegram report higher engagement from international buyers who prefer messaging over email forms. Combine Telegram with WhatsApp for Shopify to cover both Western and Eastern markets from a single floating widget.

Boei installs on Shopify in under 5 minutes via a simple embed code. No app approval needed, no theme modifications, no coding required.
