Botobot
Botobot is the most popular service for creating stores on Telegram.
Opportunities: setting up a basket, delivery options with different prices, combining products into a group, promotional codes, non-editable forms for entering data, a page for working with an order, order status, the ability to set weight and other data.
Customization: weak: you can choose one of 6 themes.
Cost: free tariff (there is an advertising message for the service). The minimum paid tariff is 640 rubles per month.
Constructor type: narrowly focused.
Mobile version: yes.
Payment services:
Import and export: yes.
Personal experience: the service allows you to add products only through the import of EXCEL tables, which is convenient for large stores (more than 100 products), but complicates the process for small ones. Suitable for those who have many types of products and who do not want to bother with settings.
A service that is not rich in functions: there is no way to add your own data entry forms, there is no customization (except for choosing a theme), only two payment services and both without payment in Telegram, not the most convenient option for displaying goods, you cannot set the rest of the product (there is no information in the help), and payment methods (even after connecting YuKassa, the order is completed without payment).

Materials: help, FAQ. Demo bot: @Sushinaka2Bot
Our TV
Telebiz is a platform that allows you to create a chat bot store for the sale of electronic goods.
Opportunities: discount coupons, referral program with withdrawal of funds for invitations, feedback module, choice of the way to display goods, inline mod, electronic goods.
Customization: weak: you can customize the name of the buttons in the menu.
Price: trial version (3 days). The minimum paid tariff is 490 rubles per month.
Constructor type: narrowly focused.
Mobile version: yes.
Payment services:
Import and Export: Export of product materials is available.
Personal experience: a service with a pleasant interface, interesting features, but with a lot of minor flaws. It allows you to sell exclusively electronic goods (links, promotional codes, access codes, etc.), you can enable a referral program with the withdrawal of funds and the accumulation of points for recommendations.
There is no possibility to customize anything, there is no way to get the product without paying in the bot (even if the price is 0 rubles after applying the coupon), you cannot add several products to the cart. The bot works with little delays. Also, I want to note that there are absolutely no educational materials, and the official channel does not have a public link, which makes it harder to find (an invalid link in your personal account).
Materials: support. Demo bot: @demo_telebiz_bot
botBoom
botBoom is a platform for creating a chatbot store with the ability to sell conventional products and courses.
Features: setting up a basket, combining products into a group, a discount, ordinary and electronic products (you can set a message to be sent when purchasing a specific product), an order page, order status, a referral system (integrated with ChatKeeperBot).

Price: trial version (2 months). The minimum paid tariff is 29 rubles per day.
Constructor type: narrowly focused.
Mobile version: yes.
Payment services:
Import and export: no. You can upload or download the entire bot, but not the products separately.
Personal experience: a complex, inconvenient and sometimes "raw" interface, as well as not the best implementation of a product card, however, the platform provides all the necessary list of functions to implement a store. Interesting integration with ChatKeeperBot for earning points through the referral system. There is no way to add product categories, set additional data entry forms.
Materials: documentation. Demo bot: @meatcultrubot
BotTap
BotTap is an interactive chat bot builder.
Features: user notifications, order status, data entry forms.
Customization: weak: you can change the question for the data entry form.
Cost: free tariff (there is an advertising message for the service, 5 orderings are available). The minimum paid tariff is 490 rubles per month.
Type of constructor: multifunctional.
Mobile version: yes.
Payment services:
Import and export: no.
Personal experience: as already mentioned in the previous large article - a constructor for the implementation of small bots (in terms of command depth). A primitive store module that allows you to add products and track orders. Suitable for those who need to create a simple bot, ask it a few commands and add less than 15 products without bothering with the settings.
There is no possibility to set the balance of the product, you can select only one payment service for payment, the product card is sent in two messages, there is no way for the user to work with the basket, there is no way to customize anything.
Materials: FAQ.
Chatforma
Chatforma is a popular service for creating chat bots for various instant messengers.
Opportunities: setting up a basket, adding a product and a data entry form.
Customization: weak: you can set a name for the "Add to cart" button.
Price: trial version (15 days). The minimum paid tariff is 4000 rubles for 3 months.
Type of constructor: multifunctional.
Mobile version: no.
Payment services:
Import and export: no.
Personal experience: a meager set of functions for implementing a store: creating a product, adding a cart button, setting up a cart and paying in a bot - that's all. The picture in the product card is loaded with a preview, there are no leftovers. The bot responded to commands with a slight delay.
Materials: instruction , video lesson.
Leadtex
Leadtex (leadteh) - a constructor for creating complex bots.
Opportunities: adding a product and a data entry form.
Customization: in- depth: customizing buttons, phrases, text in the product card and in the cart, adding information fields about the product.
Price: trial version (7 days). The minimum paid tariff is 2000 rubles per month.
Type of constructor: multifunctional.
Mobile version: yes.
Payment services:
Import and Export: Export the product list.
Personal experience: a multifunctional constructor for bots, but not for store bots. There are inconvenient solutions: the product card is sent in separate messages, to turn the pages, you need to send a number in response, you cannot add an image with a description, there is no way to set the remainder.
The service is quite difficult to master (without a video lesson it would not work), since every step must be configured in it: fields in the product list, variables in the basket and in the product card, two separate blocks for connecting the list, order notification and other little things.
Pressing the buttons does not work the first time and, in general, the bot responds with delays (you receive a message that the basket is empty, although the product has been added).
Materials: help center, video tutorial.
To my surprise, it turned out that there are very few services for creating a store in Telegram. The best services in my opinion:

- PuzzleBot is universal, you can create a regular bot and add a functional store to it.
- Bot4Shop is not universal, but the best among the narrowly focused ones.
- Telebiz is a service that is narrowly targeted among narrowly targeted. A great option for selling electronic products.
Also, I want to indicate the services that I offered, but were not included in the article:
- LavkagramBot - no web interface, configurable via Telegram.
- CrowdRobot - no web interface, configurable via Telegram. The browser marks the site as potentially dangerous.
- Botmother - there is no way to easily create a store.
- Digarson is not a store for Telegram, since the main customer interaction takes place through the site.
