Connector Roadmap
Which connectors are live, which are on the way, which plans they will need, and what coming soon commits us to.
Subscriby is a messaging-platform-first membership engine. Telegram is where we started, and where we go deepest today; Discord is in public beta, open to every creator and badged Experimental while it matures; Slack is in development next. Other platforms are on the roadmap, each arriving when we can deliver the same quality of bot-driven member management we do on Telegram.
Current status
Telegram
Live and actively developed.
Full bot integration, all 9 payment providers including Telegram Stars, channel / group / supergroup support, access codes, recurring billing, admin commands. The full creator and subscriber experience is on Telegram today.
See Telegram advantages.
Discord
Public beta, open to everyone.
One verified app added to a server, with roles, private channels and whole-server memberships granted and removed with subscription status, slash commands for members and creators, Linked Roles and pass windows as server events. Any creator installs it today; the marketplace card carries an Experimental badge while it matures.
See Discord advantages.
Slack
In development.
Next up: Slack workspace-based memberships, paid channels and automated member management through Slack's bot APIs.
Coming soon.
Paid WhatsApp groups and broadcast lists with automatic access control, on the WhatsApp Business Platform..
Also on the roadmap
Beyond the messaging platforms above, the Connectors Marketplace lists eight more connectors as Coming Soon. Each gates something a paying member gets:
- Microsoft Teams — team and channel membership.
- Discourse — private categories through forum groups.
- Ghost — paid tiers and gated posts.
- Google Drive — folders and files shared only with members.
- GitHub — private repositories and team access.
- Reddit — a private subreddit's approved users.
- Guilded — servers and roles.
- Zoom — seats in recurring meetings and webinars, registered while the plan runs.
Leave your email on any of their marketplace pages to hear the day one launches.
Which plans they will need
Telegram, Discord, Discourse, Ghost, GitHub, Reddit and Guilded are open to every plan, the Free Plan included. Five connectors are reserved for paid plans, because the platform behind them bills per message, demands a verified business account, or puts Subscriby through a vendor review on every creator's behalf:
| Connector | Needs |
|---|---|
| Slack, Zoom, Google Drive | Starter or higher |
| WhatsApp, Microsoft Teams | Growth |
The pricing page shows the same table under Connectors, with a dash under every plan that cannot install a connector. Installing one on a project whose owner is on a lower plan is refused with the plan it needs.
What "coming soon" means
When we call a platform "coming soon," it means:
- Engineering work is planned but we haven't committed to a public date.
- The Connectors Marketplace lists the connector in its Coming Soon lane with a Notify me form; nothing can install it yet.
- Existing Subscriby creators won't lose their Telegram work when other connectors go live. A project installs connectors, so adding Slack to a project that already runs Telegram is an install on that project's Connectors page, not a new project. A second connector on one project needs the Growth Plan.
We don't publish hard dates for unreleased platforms, because our priority is delivering the same quality of bot-driven member management we've spent years building on Telegram. We'd rather ship late than ship a half-baked integration that leaves your members half-managed.
Why the order: Telegram → Discord → Slack → WhatsApp?
It's partly about the platform's bot maturity, partly about our existing customer concentration:
- Telegram — gold-standard bot API, private channels and groups, native payments (Stars). Huge creator adoption. Obvious first choice.
- Discord — huge consumer reach, a role-based access model that fits memberships well, and one verified app that every creator adds without a token of their own.
- Slack — mature bot / Events API, popular for B2B and professional communities.
- WhatsApp — the largest messaging app in the world; groups and broadcast lists are reachable through the WhatsApp Business Platform.
What you can do today on other platforms
If you want membership-like features on a platform we don't officially support yet, two light workarounds:
-
Lean on your Telegram bot as the source of truth. Drive subscribers through Telegram for the subscription + access management. Post content on whatever platform makes sense separately — you just won't get auto-kick-on-expiry outside Telegram.
-
Use Access Codes for offline flows. If you're selling access to a Slack workspace and collecting payment via another system (Gumroad, Patreon, etc.), generate a batch of access codes in Subscriby and hand them out — but you'll need to invite and remove people by hand based on the codes you issue.
Neither is as smooth as the Telegram integration; both are stopgaps until the official platform support lands.
Staying informed
When a new platform goes live, we announce it via:
- Email to account holders (if you have the relevant notification preferences turned on).
- An in-app banner on your creator dashboard the first time you sign in after the release.
