A subscription VPN sold and managed entirely through its Telegram bot: pick your device, get a VLESS/VMESS configuration, and pay in the chat — a 3-day, 500 MB trial first, then from $2.99 a month on the yearly plan.
BroVPN is a commercial VPN whose storefront is a Telegram bot. Its website, available in a dozen languages, sends every "Get started" button to @bro_vpn_bot, and payment, plan changes and cancellation all happen in that chat. The service claims more than 50,000 users and over 50 locations.
Under the hood it hands out XRAY/V2RAY configurations using the VLESS and VMESS protocols. In the bot you choose your platform — iOS, Android, macOS, Windows or a router — and receive a configuration to import. The website's marketing says you do not need a separate app, but these protocols are opened by a client such as V2Box, v2rayNG or Hiddify, so expect to install one; the bot supplies the configuration, not the tunnel itself.
The trial is short: three days and 500 MB on one device, with all locations. After that the monthly plan costs $4.99 and the yearly one $35.88 (about $2.99 a month); both give unlimited data and up to five devices, and the yearly plan adds a stealth mode and priority support. BroVPN advertises a kill switch, private DNS on paid plans and a 7-day money-back guarantee, and takes cards and cryptocurrency through the bot.
The weak spot is verification. The no-logs policy and uptime figures are the company's own statements, with no audit or public company details beyond a privacy policy and terms, and the bot's Telegram page shows fewer than 10,000 monthly users — well below the 50,000 on the website. Treat it as a convenient paid option to test on the trial before committing to a year.

In practice, yes. The bot gives you a VLESS or VMESS configuration, and you import it into a client such as V2Box, v2rayNG or Hiddify.
