How to create a Telegram group for VIP players
Important from the doorstep: only legally and responsibly
The VIP group is not a "gray chat," but a controlled service environment. Work only in jurisdictions where online games are allowed and under a valid license (or as a white-label/partnership). Required: 18 +, transparent promo conditions, KYC/AML, privacy policy, Responsible Play block (limits/timeout/self-exclusion/help contacts). No promises of "guaranteed winnings."
1) Purpose and positioning of the VIP group
Purpose: service and retention of high-value segment: quick responses, status of operations, personal offers within the law, access to closed events and transparent rules.
Positioning: "private club of service and information," and not "place of distribution of bonuses." Communication is respectful, honest, with a focus on security and trust.
2) Who are VIPs and how to invite them
Basic criteria (combine):- turnover/deposits for the period (for example, ≥ the threshold X in 30 days), stable activity and KYC progress, preferred providers/games, device, GEO, low risk factor (no fraud signals).
Invitation: only personally (DM/mail/account manager) after consent. Do not post open invite links.
3) Format: group + channel + bot + WebApp
Supergroup (VIP chat): discussions, clarifications, Q&A in threads.
VIP closed channel: announcements without noise (week totals, SLA/feature updates).
Bot concierge: onboarding, tickets, statuses, reminders, quick requests for limit/payment method changes.
WebApp (inside Telegram): VIP profile, status of applications/payments, event calendar, rules/FAQ, "Responsible game."
4) Roles and processes
VIP lead - segment owner, SLA, reports.
Concierge (s) - personal dialogues, priority cases, KYC fast lane coordination.
Moderator - threads/cleanliness/antispam, white role management.
Analyst - dashboards (NGR, Ret, SLA, CSAT), reasons for requests.
Compliance - creative review, dictionary of acceptable formulations, privacy.
SLA (landmarks): first response in DM - ≤5 min (24/7 or local "windows"), solution L1 - ≤4 h, complex L2 - ≤24 h.
5) Chat rules and structure (sample)
Pinned message:1. The purpose of the chat: service, statuses, announcements, answers without toxicity.
2. Rules: no PII/screens of amounts without disguise; no spam; by links - only official domains; "2 lines of conditions" to any offer.
3. Responsible game: quick buttons "Limit," "Time-out," "Self-exclusion," help contacts.
4. Moderation: slow-mode for new VIPs, 1 tap complaints, white roles.
5. Official accounts: channel/bot/support list.
Topics (threads): "News," "Payment statuses," "CUS/documents," "Games/providers," "Responsibly."
6) Onboarding VIP (bot script)
Greeting: "Welcome to the VIP club. Below are brief rules and your service tools."
Choice of language and time zone.
18 + confirmation, privacy/messages consent, VIP channel subscription.
Buttons: My status· KYC fast lane· Change limit· Concierge 24/7· Responsible play.
Explanation "how payments are arranged/ETA/what is considered the correct case for priority."
7) Service: KYC fast lane and statuses
KYC fast lane: priority verification without reducing requirements. Clearly explain the list of documents, deadlines, reasons for refusal.
WebApp/Bot statuses:- 'withdrawal _ requested → in_review → approved/paid → ETA ', timers and push reminders, call log, limit change tracker.
8) Content grid (no noise)
Weekly VIP digest (channel): 3 important updates, SLA/payments, events of the week, 1 training block (payments/CCM/responsibly).
Q&A sessions (chat): once a week - "payments," "KYC," "new providers."
Personal digests (DM): by interests/providers/time zone, no more than 1-2/week.
Service updates: the status of delays/scheduled work - immediately and honestly.
9) Personalization and frequencies
Segments: Rising VIP/Core VIP/Dormant VIP.
Timing: by VIP locale, "quiet hours" by default, add-on in the profile.
Content: different CTAs and recommendations for favorite genres/providers; different depth of details (who loves "short," who - extended parses).
10) Anti-fraud and privacy
Masking of sums/screens, prohibition of publication of PII in the general chat.
Device/ASN signals in your infrastructure; alerts to abnormal patterns.
Audit logs for manual operations (4-eye rule).
A clear retention and deletion policy.
11) Metrics and dashboards (landmarks)
Service: time to first response (P50/P90), proportion solved per 1 touch (FCR 60-75%), CSAT ≥4. 5/5, NPS.
Activity: Read 48h in the channel 65-80%, the share of VIPs who asked a question/week, ER threads.
Business: contribution of VIP-communications to repeated targeted actions, Ret D30/D90, Payback, share of VIP-NGR.
Security - Complaints/Spam <0. 5%, privacy incidents - 0, the share of players with active limits.
12) Message templates
A. Welcome to DM (concierge):- "Hi, [Name]! I [Name], your VIP concierge. If you need help with the CCP/payment/limit - write here. Our priority windows: daily 09: 00-23: 00 at your time. The buttons below are quick steps"
- "Bid # {id}: confirmed, ETA today until {time}. Want a reminder when it will be paid? [Yeah, no"
- "Honest update: on the PSP side, the delay is N minutes. All applications with {time} received priority. The status is in the bot, the concierge is available 24/7. Thanks for being patient"
- Buttons: Set limit· Timeout 24h/7d· Self-exclusion· Help.
13) A/B tests (quick ideas)
VIP digest format: "3 items" vs "1 story + 1 update + 1 tip."
First DM words: name/level vs neutral greeting.
The order of the buttons in the bot: "Status" vs "Concierge" first.
Time of personal digests: morning/evening by locale.
Type of status cards: progress bar vs event tape.
14) Frequent mistakes and how to avoid them
Open invites. The risk of clones/phishing → only personal invitations.
Frequency overheating. DM/fluffs for no reason → fast mutas. Enter frequency-cap and quiet hours.
No statuses. "Where's the money?" grows at times → show ETA/log and updates.
Fuzzy rules. Toxicity and controversy → a tough but polite moderator and understandable fixes.
Ignoring the "responsible game." Confidence is falling and risks are growing → visible limits and help buttons.
15) Checklists
Before starting:- Legal model, license/contract, privacy policy.
- VIP criteria, invitation process, personal invite templates.
- Link channel + supergroup + bot + WebApp.
