Chess on Telegram: play with the EonChess Mini App

You can play EonChess without leaving Telegram: the Mini App opens the platform inside the bot's chat and works with the same account and the same games as the website. It is a convenient way to play from your phone without installing anything.

What the Mini App is

A Telegram Mini App is a website that opens inside the app itself and looks like an app. EonChess's opens from the official bot, @EonChess_bot, and gives access to the same features as the website: practice, free games, prize games, wallet and profile.

It is not a separate version: it is the same platform, so what you do in one place shows up in the other.

How to get started

To start playing from Telegram:

  • Open the @EonChess_bot bot in Telegram and tap the button to open the app.
  • If you already have an account with email or Google, first link Telegram from the website (Settings → Linked accounts) to keep your balance and history: if you sign in directly, a new Telegram-only account is created. You must be 18 or older.
  • Practice for free or play prize games: it works just like the website.

Alerts and security on Telegram

If you created your account with Telegram, withdrawal confirmation codes arrive in the official bot's chat, and you also get alerts about your activity, such as completed withdrawals. Never share those codes: the EonChess team will never ask for them.

Always check that you are talking to the official bot @EonChess_bot, to avoid fake accounts imitating the name.

When to use the Mini App and when the website

The Mini App is ideal for quick games from your phone. If you prefer a big screen, you can use the website with the same account. The rules, time controls and fees are the same: they are explained in how EonChess works.

For adults aged 18 and over only. Play responsibly and only with money you can afford to lose.
