PINNED POSTS WITH A LINK BUTTON
Give your readers
a clear next step.
Send readers to your shop, booking page or newsletter. Amenable Bot creates a new pinned Telegram post with one clearly labelled button—using your text and your link.

MAKE YOUR MAIN LINK EASY TO FIND
You have the audience.
Show them where to go.
If your channel sends people to a shop, a booking page or a signup form, give that destination a dedicated post. A named button makes the action explicit; pinning helps readers find the post again.
For example: a ceramics channel can pin “Shop available pieces” with a button straight to its catalogue.
Why use Amenable?
You can already pin a post with a normal link in Telegram. Amenable guides you through adding a separate button beneath a new text post, checking it privately, and publishing and pinning it from one chat.
No coding or separate dashboard. Bring the text and destination you already have.
Best for owners who want a simple guided setup. If your current publishing tool already handles buttons and pins, you may have this covered.

FROM IDEA TO PINNED POST
Your text + your link.
A guided setup.
Set it up in a private chat with the bot.
No separate dashboard to learn.
Walkthrough, 24 seconds, no sound. The Amenable Bot mascot waves, sits down at a laptop and opens a private chat with Amenable Bot. It sends /new and chooses the channel Field Notes, then sends the post “Fresh ideas, every Sunday. Join our newsletter.”, the button label “Get the newsletter” and the website https://example.com/newsletter. The bot shows a private preview; “Publish and pin” is clicked, and the post appears pinned in the Field Notes channel with its button.
/new to a pinned post in one short chat. Illustrative demo with a fictional channel.Choose your channel
Open the bot using a button on this page, tap Start in Telegram, and select a channel you manage. Telegram asks you to add the bot with permission to post and edit messages, which it needs to publish and pin.
Add your text and link
Write your post, name your button, and choose its destination. A shop, a signup page, a channel—your call.
Preview. Publish. Pin.
Check your private preview, then approve publishing. The bot posts it, pins it, and sends you a link.
TRY IT WITH YOUR OWN DESTINATION
What should readers
do after reading?

A FEW GOOD QUESTIONS
Before you pin.
Can’t I just pin a link myself?
Yes. A normal pinned link may be all you need. Amenable provides a guided setup for a separate, labelled button beneath your post, with a private preview and publishing and pinning in the same flow. It does not guarantee more clicks or sales.
Does this add a button to a post I already published?
No. The demo creates a new text post with one button. It cannot add a button to an existing post or include photos or videos. You supply the post text and link.
I don’t manage Telegram myself. Can I still use this?
Yes—share this page with the person who manages your Telegram channel. They’ll need a Telegram account with permission to post and edit messages in that channel to set it up.
What permissions does the bot need?
The bot needs administrator permissions to post and edit messages in the selected channel, which allow it to publish and pin your post. You review the post privately and explicitly approve publishing.
What’s included in the demo?
One text post with one button, published and pinned to one channel after your approval. The default allowance is one published post per person across all channels. Deleting it doesn’t reset the allowance. For another post, use /feedback in the bot to ask for more access. Media, scheduling, and editing published posts through the bot aren’t part of this demo.
Where can my button send readers?
To an HTTPS website, a Telegram profile or channel, or a Telegram bot link with a start parameter that opens a specific flow in the destination bot. Paste the full link when choosing a bot destination. You choose the destination and button label when you create the post.
Will the post disappear after the demo?
No. The bot doesn’t automatically delete or replace it. You can manage the published post in Telegram. If publishing succeeds but pinning fails, the bot gives you the post link so you can pin it manually.
