🚀 Getting Started
This guide walks a group admin through the full setup flow for the TON INU Buy Bot.
Before you begin
Before setting up the bot, make sure that:
- you are an admin in the Telegram group where the bot will run
- you have the token's contract address on TON
- you know which DEX the token is listed on
- the token has at least one active liquidity pool on a supported DEX
Adding the bot to your group
- Open @tonbuytech on Telegram
- Add it to your group as a member
- Grant it permission to send messages
Configuring the bot
Once the bot is in the group:
- Send
/startbbin the group - The bot shows a setup menu — tap Add Token Address
- Paste the token's contract address; the bot validates it and loads token metadata from the TON API
- Select the main DEX:
- Ston.fi or DeDust — the bot queries the pool address automatically
- GasPump, Blum, PocketFi, or AppInCoin — select the memepad option; the pool ID is derived from the token address
- Set pool address manually — paste a specific pool address if needed
- The bot confirms setup and begins listening for buys on that pool
Only group admins can run /startbb, /stopbb, and /configbb. Regular members cannot change bot settings.
Testing the setup
After setup, open the configuration menu with /configbb and tap Test BuyBot. The bot sends a simulated buy alert so you can verify the message looks correct before real buys arrive.
Stopping the bot
To deactivate the bot, run /stopbb or open /configbb and tap Stop Bot.
