External services This plugin connects to the official Telegram Bot API, which is required for its core functionality (sending order notifications and, optionally, receiving status-change button presses). Telegram Bot API (default endpoint: https://api.telegram.org ; a custom mirror/proxy can optionally be set by the site admin in Advanced settings, for regions where Telegram is blocked) What it’s used for: sending order notification messages to the Telegram chat(s) the store owner has connected; registering a webhook so Telegram can deliver interactive button presses and connection confirmations back to the site; verifying the Bot Token is valid; and, only when the store owner explicitly connects a chat, receiving that chat’s ID. What data is sent, and when: whenever a WooCommerce order is created or its status changes, the order details included in the configured message template (which may include the customer’s name, phone number, and order note if those placeholders are used) are sent to Telegram’s servers so they can be delivered as a message. The site’s REST API URL is sent once when registering the webhook. No data is sent to Telegram unless a Bot Token has been configured by the site admin. This service is provided by Telegram Messenger Inc.: Terms of Service , Privacy Policy . QR codes shown during setup (to scan and open Telegram links) are generated entirely in the visitor’s browser using a bundled, offline QR code library — no data is sent to any third-party QR generation service.

Frequently asked questions

Is this free? Yes. It uses the standard Telegram Bot API, which has no message fees. Can my whole team see order alerts? Yes. Add your bot to a Telegram group, get the group’s Chat ID (instructions in the plugin’s setup guide), and add it alongside your personal Chat ID — every alert goes to everyone in the list. Does this require a server or VPS? No. It runs entirely inside WordPress using standard HTTP requests to the Telegram API. Does the connection expire? No. The Telegram Bot Token does not expire and does not require any re-authentication. Can I translate this plugin into my language? Yes. Every piece of text (settings page, tutorial, Telegram messages and buttons, emails) goes through WordPress’s standard translation functions, so it’s fully ready for translation. Once this plugin is available on WordPress.org, translations are handled through translate.wordpress.org — anyone can contribute a translation there, and it’s delivered to users automatically through the normal WordPress update system, no manual file editing needed. Can I change the order status directly from Telegram? Yes. Enable “Interactive status buttons” in the settings page. Every new order alert will include buttons for Processing, Completed, Cancelled, or Refunded (adapted to the order’s current status) — tapping one updates the real order on your site instantly. This requires your site to be reachable over HTTPS from the internet.
