Question 1

How many countries does Telegram Ads Spy cover for Telegram advertising?

Accepted Answer

Telegram Ads Spy currently tracks ads served in 109 countries on Telegram, with 69,451 classified creatives in total. Coverage is strongest in markets with active Telegram Ads cabinets and high paid-channel activity. Top countries by volume: Russia (27,622), Türkiye (7,464), India (5,369), United Arab Emirates (5,082), Uzbekistan (4,517).

Question 2

How is a country assigned to each Telegram ad?

Accepted Answer

Each sponsored message is fetched from a Telegram pool account pinned to a specific region (ISO 3166-1 alpha-2). The ad is geo-tagged with that observer region — meaning it's the country where the creative was actually served, not a guess from text content. Multi-region creatives appear under each observed country.

Question 3

What signals does each country page expose?

Accepted Answer

Per country: total ad volume, top niches (e.g. crypto in TR, gambling in DE, dating in IN), top advertisers running in that geo, channel coverage, payment source split (TON vs EUR Telegram Ads Cabinet) and ad-creative gallery. Drill into /countries//niches/ for cross-cuts.

Question 4

Is geo data available via API?

Accepted Answer

Yes — https://tgadsspy.com/api/v1/geos returns per-country aggregates; https://tgadsspy.com/api/v1/ads?geo=DE filters the creative archive. Both endpoints are documented at /api-docs. Free tier 60 req/min, CC-BY-4.0 license.
