Telegram has officially launched a new update for its app, allowing creators to earn directly from within the platform, along with more features.
The instant messaging app revealed on Friday, July 4, 2025, that with Checklists, Telegram Premium users can create interactive checklists in individual and group chats to manage tasks and track progress in real time.
Telegram's new update introduces new features
Telegram has released three new features as part of its latest update, which include collaborative checklists, suggested posts, and better monetisation options for creators.
Collaborative checklists allow Telegram Premium subscribers to create interactive checklists for various uses including group projects or grocery lists. This feature works in group chats, one-on-one conversations, or even saved messages.
Users can tap on the attachment menu and select Checklist to create collaborative checklists.
Meanwhile, channel subscribers can now suggest content, such as promotional videos, fan art, or product reviews, in the channels that they follow.
According to the company, “suggested posts” on Telegram can be scheduled for a specific date. This feature has also been expanded with the ability to fund suggested posts to support creators.
As per Telegram, those without an Apple Pay or Google Pay account can purchase the currencies via Fragment and the PremiumBot on Telegram. However, users should note that payments made via Toncoin are final and non-refundable.
On the other hand, suggested posts carry built-in monetisation tools for channels. The instant messaging app claims it enables creators to earn affiliate promotions, crowdsource content, and earn revenue without leaving the app.
