Pavel Durov is looking for new ways to monetize his brainchild. Now, following the advent of advertising integrations, Telegram will add a premium subscription.
The first information about the new feature was discovered by the Telegram Info channel and reverse engineer Alessandro Paluzzi in the beta build of the 8.7.2 messenger for iOS. Subscription activation is not yet available.
At the moment, not all the benefits for owners of premium subscriptions are known. Thus, more reactions to messages will become available to these users. They will also be able to send animated reactions with full-screen playback at the recipient. Another "chip" for owners of premium accounts will be the presence of a star icon next to the name.
It is not yet known about other paid subscription options in the messenger. Earlier, Pavel Durov spoke about the emergence of a paid subscription function to disable advertising integrations.
