Free Telegram bot hosting 24/7: Pro for inviting friends
In short
You can host a Telegram bot on Netrun around the clock for free by inviting friends: invitations earn you the Pro plan, on which a bot runs 24/7. For every friend who signs up with your personal link and publishes their first project, you get a week of Pro, and your friend gets a day of bot time as a gift. You can earn up to four rewards per 30 days, that is up to four weeks of Pro a month. Without invitations Pro is paid: from $4.99 a month.
- On Netrun, for every invited friend who publishes their first project, the inviter gets a week of Pro.
- The invited friend gets a day of bot time on top of the free time on the Free plan.
- Invitation rewards are capped at four per 30 days, that is up to four weeks of Pro a month.
- If the inviter is already on a paid plan, the gifted week is added to the paid term.
- Your own accounts under another email do not count, and such invitations earn nothing.
The Pro plan keeps a bot running around the clock and lifts the time limit of the Free plan, where a bot runs for 3 hours. Pro is normally paid once for a month, three months or a year. But you can also earn it instead of buying it: every friend who starts using Netrun brings you a week of Pro.
There is one condition: your friend has to publish a project — a website, a bot or a program — not just sign up. That way we reward real people, not empty sign-ups.
Open your link#
In your dashboard, go to your profile and open the “Invite a friend” card. Your personal link and a copy button are there.
Send the link to a friend#
Any messenger, chat or post will do. A friend who opens the link and creates an account sees on the sign-in screen that they were invited and that a gift is waiting.
Your friend publishes a first project#
As soon as your friend's first project is running, they get a day of bot time as a gift, on top of the free time.
A day later your week of Pro arrives#
We check that your friend is a different person, not your second account, and add a week of Pro to your plan. If you are already on a paid plan, the week extends it. You get a notification about the reward.
Keep track#
The same screen shows how many friends came, how many published a project and how many days of Pro you have earned. Rewards are capped at four per 30 days — up to four weeks of Pro a month; friends beyond the cap are not lost, their week arrives later.
If you invite friends regularly, you will hardly need to pay for Pro: four friends a month cover almost the whole month. If you would rather not wait, Pro can be bought right away — from $4.99 a month. Try Netrun.
Common questions
Can I really get Pro for free?
Yes, by inviting friends: a week of Pro for every friend who publishes a first project, up to four weeks of Pro a month. Without invitations Pro is paid once for a month, three months or a year.
Does a friend count if they only signed up?
No. The reward arrives once your friend publishes a first project. Until then the invitation waits.
Can I invite myself from a second email?
No. Such invitations do not count: we can tell it is the same person, and no reward is given.
What if I invite more than four friends a month?
Those invitations are not lost: the week of Pro for each one arrives once the 30-day limit frees up.
Can I use Pro for free?
Yes, by inviting friends. Your profile has an “Invite a friend” section with your personal link. When a friend signs up with it and publishes their first project, they get a day of bot time as a gift, and a day later you get a week of Pro. If you are already on a paid plan, the week is added to it. You can get up to four rewards per 30 days, and your own accounts under another email do not count.
What is different about the Pro plan?
On the Pro plan your project runs around the clock: a website does not sleep and responds instantly, with no pause to wake up, while a bot or a background script keeps running with no time limit. On top of that, Pro gives more memory, CPU and disk space, and a Pro website can use your own domains — as many as you need, each with HTTPS.
