Every deal channel owner knows the routine: source channels post the loot at midnight, and whoever forwards it first — with working affiliate links — wins the clicks. The Affiliaters Telegram Forwarder exists so that person is always you — even when you're at work, out with family, or asleep. You built the audience; you shouldn't have to babysit a phone to keep it.
What is the Telegram Forwarder?
It's a Telegram auto forwarder built specifically for affiliate deals. It sits in the cloud, watches the source Telegram channels you pick, and the moment a message lands it goes to work: every store link inside — Amazon.in, Flipkart, Myntra, EarnKaro, Admitad, Cuelinks, Shopsy or any other connected network — is converted to your own affiliate link, shortened on your own domain shortener (Bitly and Cuttly work too), and the finished post goes out to all your channels and groups automatically. Images come along for the ride.
That conversion step is what separates it from a generic Telegram forwarder. A plain forwarder copies the message as-is — with the source channel's affiliate IDs still inside, so their commission keeps ticking while your channel does the distribution. The Telegram Forwarder converts first and forwards second. Every link that reaches your audience carries your tag, your token, your ID. The commission tracks to your accounts, and Affiliaters takes no cut — same promise as the Link Converter it's built on.
How it works, step by step
Setup is a one-time job — a few minutes even if you type slowly. Here's the exact flow inside the dashboard:
- Log in with your Telegram number. The Forwarder runs on your own Telegram account, not some shared bot — that's what lets it read the source channels you already follow.
- Enter the OTP. Telegram sends a login code straight to your Telegram app. Type it into the dashboard.
- 2FA? Supported. If you've enabled two-step verification, you'll be asked for your 2FA password as well.
- Hit "Get All Chats". The Forwarder pulls in every channel and group your account can see.
- Pick your source chats. Tick the deal channels you want watched — the ones that post the loot you'd normally repost by hand.
- Press Start Forwarding. Done. Close the tab.
From that second onwards, every message in your sources is processed automatically: links converted to your affiliate IDs, your Replacers applied to the text (swap the source's channel name for yours, add your promo line), your Blacklist respected — words, stores or links you never want posted simply don't go out — and images forwarded along with the message.
What happens when a deal drops
Say a source posts an earbuds loot at 11:47 PM. The Forwarder detects the message, converts the store link to your ID, shortens it on your domain, runs your Replacers, checks the Blacklist, attaches the image and pushes the post out. One blast reaches every channel and group you've connected, within seconds of the source posting it. The live log at the top of this page shows what that looks like from the inside. Your post lands while the deal is still hot.
And because it's the same pipeline behind every Affiliaters post, nothing about the output changes when a human isn't driving: same shortener, same Replacers, same Blacklist, same formatting your subscribers already recognise. The only difference is who pressed send — and at 2 AM, nobody did.
Use it responsibly
The Forwarder logs in as you — that's its superpower, and it's also your responsibility. Because it runs on your own Telegram account, heavy or careless automation carries some risk of account restrictions from Telegram's side. Our docs say this plainly, and so do we. Keep your source list to channels you actually need, don't turn your account into a spam cannon, and read the Telegram Forwarder guide before going all-in.

How to get the Telegram Forwarder
Two ways: it comes included with the top plan, or you bolt it onto any active plan as the Forwarder addon. Which route makes sense depends on what else you need — the pricing page has the full comparison.
Either way, it slots straight into the rest of your setup: Telegram automation handles your destination channels, the networks hub covers connecting each affiliate account, and every forwarded deal still runs through your shortener, Replacers and Blacklist.
