Questions about Telegram Bot Hosting
We've put our frequently asked questions right here, so you have your answers before you even start.
Still have questions or just want to chat?
How do I host a Telegram bot 24/7?
Deploy a container, pick Python or Node.js for your Telegram bot, upload your code, add your Environment Variables and start your server: easy as that! It keeps running, even if your computer is offline. The setup guide walks you through these steps.
Is this a VPS?
No, FPS.ms does not offer VPS hosting. Your Telegram bot runs in a container managed by FPS.ms. This means you never have to update its operating system, install security patches or keep the machine running yourself.
Where do I get my bot token?
From @BotFather in Telegram. The BotFather guide shows each step.
Long polling or webhooks?
Both work! Long polling is the easiest way to start and needs no setup. For webhooks, give Telegram your Public URL, like https://trivia-bot.hostedbyfps.com. HTTPS is included.
Which libraries can I use?
python-telegram-bot, aiogram and pyTelegramBotAPI on Python; Telegraf and grammY on Node.js.
Can I deploy my bot from GitHub?
Yes, you can deploy your code directly from GitHub, and even automatically (re)deploy your container when you push to your branch. If something breaks in your code, you can always roll back. GitHub deploys are a Pro feature.
How does the free plan work?
A free plan has to be renewed every day to stay online, and at least once every 28 days to keep its data. More details on the Free Telegram Bot Hosting page.
How much memory does my bot need?
Simple bots run fine on our free plan, but aiogram 3.29 and newer needs more than 128 MB on its own. For bigger bots, 256 to 512 MB of memory is the sweet spot. Need more? Contact us for a custom plan.
Do paid plans include a database?
Yes, every paid plan from 256 MB includes a MariaDB database.
Can I run multiple bots in one container?
We don't limit the number of Telegram bots you can run in one container, as long as your main file starts them all. Keep in mind you will hit the resource limits faster.
