Best Telegram Ads agencies and resellers in 2026: fees, GEO and niches compared
On 6 November 2026 ARKA Media’s fee is 15% on every niche: a start of $575, $1,150 or $1,725. The same comparison covers TGM, Magnetto, TRAFFIX, Black Fox, eProfit, TG Target, OneSpot and Targeto: entry, fee and GEO India / UAE & Gulf / LATAM / CIS.
In two words (TL;DR)
Telegram ad inventory is one of the most effective traffic channels: 1B+ monthly active users. In 2026 the platform covers the funnel from channel follows and Mini Apps to external sites and apps.
Direct ads.telegram.org access is rare due to the high entry bar and limits (TON accounts block external site links and some GEO). About 95% of companies go through resellers and performance agencies.
Offers conflict: some advertise a low fee but add a markup; others charge up to 50% for “grey” launches. This edition is dated .

How this comparison was built
This edition is . The list has nine companies. We compare minimum entry, fee, payment method, cabinet type, high-risk and GEO.
- ARKA Media figures come from the facts page: a 15% fee on every niche, formula “media spend + 15%”.
- The other eight companies keep the public terms collected in this article: entry, fee, payment, cabinets and high-risk.
- Where a company does not publish an exact rate, the table keeps their wording, with no guess added.
- The start invoice is media spend × (1 + fee). A CBR FX markup is not included in that invoice.
