Documentation
Everything you need to know about setting up and using TG Sniper.
Getting Started
TG Sniper automatically buys Solana tokens the moment a contract address (CA) is posted in a Telegram channel or group you're monitoring. The entire pipeline — from message detection to on-chain trade — is lightning fast, powered by Jito bundles.
Quick start in 4 steps:
Connecting Telegram
TG Sniper uses your Telegram account to monitor channels and groups in real-time. You connect once, and your session stays active until you disconnect.
How it works
You enter your phone number, receive a verification code on Telegram, and enter it on TG Sniper. If you have two-factor authentication (2FA) enabled, you'll also enter your password. That's it — one-time setup.
Session storage
Your Telegram session is encrypted with AES-256-GCM and stored securely. TG Sniper can only read messages — it never sends messages, joins channels, or modifies your account in any way.
Disconnecting
You can disconnect your Telegram account at any time from the Telegram settings page. This immediately stops all monitoring and deletes the stored session.
Note: You must be a member of the channels and groups you want to monitor. TG Sniper reads messages through your account, so it can only see what you can see.
Wallet Management
TG Sniper needs a Solana wallet to execute trades. You can create a fresh wallet or import an existing one using its private key.
Create wallet
Generates a new Solana keypair. The private key is encrypted with AES-256-GCM before being stored. You'll need to fund this wallet with SOL before trading.
Import wallet
Paste a base58-encoded private key to import an existing wallet. The key is encrypted immediately — it is never stored in plain text.
Withdrawing SOL
You can withdraw SOL from any wallet to an external address. Click Withdraw on the wallet page, verify your account password, enter the recipient address and amount (or tap 100% to send the full balance minus rent). A small rent-exempt reserve is always preserved to keep the account active on Solana.
Sniper Jobs
A sniper job is a configured task that monitors specific Telegram channels or groups and automatically buys tokens when a contract address is detected.
Job configuration
Tip: Jobs are created in a paused state. Review your settings on the confirmation screen, then activate when ready. You can pause and resume jobs at any time.
Channels & Groups
TG Sniper supports monitoring both broadcast channels and group chats. The detection method is automatically selected based on the channel type — you don't need to configure anything.
📢 Broadcast Channels
Channels where only admins can post (like alpha call channels). These are monitored using Telegram's difference API, which polls for new messages at high speed.
👥 Group Chats
Groups where multiple users can chat. These are monitored using real-time event delivery — messages are detected the instant they are sent, with zero delay.
How detection works
When a message is posted, TG Sniper scans it for Solana contract addresses (base58-encoded strings of 32–44 characters). It checks the message text, captions on photos/videos, embedded URLs, and webpage previews. If a valid CA is found and hasn't been seen before, the buy engine is triggered immediately.
User Filtering
For group chats, you can filter which users' messages trigger a buy. This is useful when you only want to follow specific callers in a busy group.
Note: User filtering is only available for groups, not broadcast channels. In broadcast channels, only admins can post, so filtering isn't needed.
Exit Strategies
Each sniper job can have an automatic exit strategy that sells the token after a configurable delay.
Tip: If you disable the exit strategy, you can sell manually at any time through your wallet or any Solana DEX.
Duplicate Protection
TG Sniper makes sure you never buy the same token twice from the same job.
DEX Support
TG Sniper automatically detects which DEX a token is on and routes the trade accordingly. No manual configuration needed.
PumpSwap
Tokens that have graduated from the bonding curve and are trading on PumpSwap pools. TG Sniper reads pool accounts and executes swaps directly.
Pump.fun Bonding Curve
Tokens still on the Pump.fun bonding curve. TG Sniper detects this automatically and buys directly from the bonding curve contract.
How routing works
When a CA is detected, the buy engine fetches the token's accounts in a single RPC call. If a PumpSwap pool exists, it routes through PumpSwap. If only a bonding curve is found, it buys from the bonding curve. This detection adds minimal overhead to the trade.
Trade History
Every trade executed by TG Sniper is logged with full details.
Each trade record includes:
Filter trades by job or action type (buy/sell) and paginate through your full history.
Referral Program
Earn SOL by inviting others to TG Sniper. When someone signs up through your referral link and trades, you earn 50% of their trading fees — forever.
How it works
Details
Note: Referral earnings are tracked as a virtual balance and paid out from the platform fee wallet when you claim. The link between referrer and referred user is permanent and cannot be changed.
Fees & Limits
Trading fee
TG Sniper charges a 1% fee on every buy and sell transaction. This fee is added as a SOL transfer instruction within the same Jito bundle — there is no separate transaction. There are no subscription fees, no monthly charges, and no minimum balance requirements. You only pay when you trade.
Account limits
Security
TG Sniper is built with security as a priority.
