How to Send Bulk Messages on Telegram Without Getting Banned

Bulk messaging can be an effective way to reach many users on Telegram, but if done incorrectly, it can result in temporary or permanent bans. Follow these best practices to safely send bulk messages without risking your account.

1. Understand Telegram’s Rate Limits

Telegram enforces rate limits to prevent spam. If you exceed these limits, you’ll encounter Flood_Wait errors. Always space out your messages:

Limit to 1–2 messages per second per account.
Include a 1–3 second delay between individual user messages.
Monitor for Flood_Wait responses and back off accordingly.

2. Warm Up Your Account

New or inactive accounts are more likely to be flagged. Gradually increase messaging volume over days or weeks:

Start with small batches (10–20 users) on day one.
Increase by 10–20 additional users each day.
Monitor response rates and errors closely.

3. Segment Your Recipient List

Avoid sending identical messages to thousands at once. Instead:

Group recipients by interests or activity level.
Customize message content slightly for each segment.
Rotate between segments to distribute send volume.

4. Use Multiple Session Files or Accounts

Distribute load across several Telegram accounts:

Create separate .session files for each account using Telethon or Pyrogram.
Rotate through accounts in your script to stay under per-account limits.
Ensure each account follows the same warm-up and rate limit strategy.

5. Implement Exponential Backoff

If you receive a Flood_Wait error, pause and retry later:

# Pseudo-code example

if Flood_Wait_error:

  wait_time = error.seconds + 5  

  time.sleep(wait_time)           

  retry_message()

        Tip: Add a small buffer (e.g., +5 seconds) to the suggested retry time to avoid repeated errors.
      

6. Provide Value and Opt-Out Options

High engagement rates and low complaint rates reduce spam flags:

Ensure your messages are relevant and valuable.
Include clear instructions on how to unsubscribe or opt out.
Respect opt-out requests promptly.

7. Monitor Performance and Adjust

Continuously track send success, error rates, and user feedback:

Log all sends, failures, and retry attempts.
Analyze which segments respond best.
Refine timing, content, and segmentation based on data.
