These bots put a marketplace's search and its price alerts inside a Telegram chat, for shoppers who would rather send one message than scroll a shop's listings every evening.

We placed no orders, handed no bot an account key and waited for no discount to land; the ranking rests on what can be checked in the open. For each candidate we opened its t.me page, confirmed it is a live bot rather than a free username, and read the monthly-users figure the same page publishes. Then we looked for the service behind it: a link to that exact username from the marketplace's own site or help pages, a developer with a name, a support channel, a published price. Candidates whose entire public record was one line of profile text, with no owner and no independent account of what they do, stayed unpublished drafts instead of entries in this list.
On a shop the size of AliExpress the discount you want sits under a few hundred listings you do not. AliExpress Sales & Discounts (@discount_livebot) turns that into a conversation: you send a keyword, it returns matching products, and you decide whether to read the list by how deep the discount is or by how low the price is. The part worth keeping is the price watch — pick an item, ask the bot to follow it, and the alert lands in a chat you already have open, with no extra app, no deal-site account and no browser extension. Where the same item enters and leaves a promotion several times a month, that is the difference between the sale price and the sticker price. The bot is free and answers in English only, so write the keyword in English; one English word for the product usually does it.
The bot sorts what the listings say, and a listing's discount is measured against the seller's own reference price. Use the sorting to draw up a shortlist, then open the product on AliExpress itself and judge it by the amount you will actually be charged, delivery included.
Anyone can put a marketplace's name on a bot. @discount_livebot names no developer, has no website and no support channel, and AliExpress links to it from nowhere; none of that proves anything bad, but it does mean a stranger stands between you and the shop, so keep the payment on the marketplace and never in a link sent to you in chat. The same test runs the other way. When a bot presents itself as a shop's own, look for a link to that username on the shop's site or in its help pages — if there is none, treat the bot as third-party and keep your account out of it.
Not necessarily: anyone can put a marketplace's name in a bot's name. Look for a link to the bot on the marketplace's own website or app; if there is none, treat it as a third-party service and don't give it access to your account.
No: a deal taken off the platform loses whatever protection the platform offers, and a link "to receive payment" or "arrange delivery" is a common way to steal card details. Talk and pay only in the marketplace's own chat and app.
Only if you know who runs the service. Create a separate key for the bot with the narrowest permissions the marketplace allows, such as read-only access to sales data, and revoke it in your seller account once you stop using the bot.
