<p>This update brings <a href="#payments-2-0">Payments 2.0</a> for all Telegram chats, <a href="#scheduled-voice-chats">Scheduling</a> and <a href="#mini-profiles-for-voice-chats">Mini Profiles</a> for <strong>Voice Chats</strong>, <a href="#new-web-versions">new Telegram apps</a> for your browser, and more.</p>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="payments-2-0" href="#payments-2-0"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Payments 2.0</h3>
<p>We first added support for payments <a href="https://telegram.org/evolution#may-2017">in 2017</a>. <strong>Payment bots</strong> allowed users to securely pay for goods and services without leaving the app anything from ordering a pizza to hailing a taxi, to replacing winter tires when you&#39;re tired of winter.</p>
<p>Starting today, merchants can natively accept credit card payments in <strong>any chat</strong>, relying on <strong>9</strong> <a href="https://core.telegram.org/bots/payments#supported-payment-providers">integrated third-party payment providers</a> such as <strong>Stripe</strong>.</p>
<p>Buyers can <strong>add a tip</strong> whenever they make a purchase to show some extra love to their favorite artists, stores, or delivery drivers. Payments can now be made from any app including <a href="https://telegram.org/apps">desktop apps</a>.</p>

</div>
<p>This is a free and privacy-conscious platform Telegram takes <strong>no commission</strong>, and <strong>stores no payment information</strong>. Credit card information is sent directly to the payment provider and shipping information is shared with the merchant so they can send you your goods. </p>
<blockquote>
<p>We&#39;ve created a <a href="https://t.me/TestStore/2">demo channel</a> with the most exotic imaginary goods and services no money can buy, so you can <strong>test how this works</strong> without spending a penny.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Any merchant can start using the <strong>Payments API</strong> without getting additional approvals from Telegram. Developers interested in integrating payments can find all the details in the <a href="https://core.telegram.org/bots/payments">Payments Manual</a>.</p>
<h3><a class="anchor" name="scheduled-voice-chats" href="#scheduled-voice-chats"><i class="anchor-icon"></i></a>Scheduled Voice Chats</h3>
<p>Voice Chats give users the option to catch up with a few friends or tune in to <a href="https://telegram.org/blog/voice-chats-on-steroids">massive broadcasts</a> with millions of listeners.</p>
<p>Admins of groups and channels can now <strong>schedule a Voice Chat</strong> for a <strong>particular date and time</strong> instead of creating one right away. This gives community members time to let their friends know and get the popcorn ready.</p>

<p>Users will see a colorful <strong>countdown</strong> at the top of the chat. Those too busy to watch the countdown can opt to receive a <strong>notification</strong> when the voice chat starts.</p>

<p>Telegram&#39;s first Web Version was launched in <strong><a href="https://telegram.org/evolution#february-2014">2014</a></strong>. Ever since, our pet demon of internal competition kept whispering: &#39;Why have one web version when you can have two?&#39;</p>
<p>Today we&#39;re adding <strong>two</strong> new, fully-featured Telegram web apps both supporting <strong>animated stickers</strong>, <strong>dark mode</strong>, <strong>chat folders</strong> and <strong>more</strong>.</p>

<p>With the new web versions you can get instant access to your chats on any device <strong>desktop</strong> or <strong>mobile</strong>. These apps are incredibly efficient, requiring only a <strong>400 KB</strong> download (that&#39;s like two photos of a medium-sized cat) and <strong>no installation</strong>.</p>
<p>Take them for a test drive, and see which one you like best:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="https://webk.telegram.org">Telegram Web K</a></li>
<li><a href="https://webz.telegram.org">Telegram Web Z</a></li>
</ul>
<p>Like other <a href="https://telegram.org/apps">Telegram apps</a>, all our web versions are <strong>standalone</strong>: once you&#39;ve logged in, you <strong>do not</strong> need to keep your phone nearby or connected to the internet. </p>
