# December 2025 ### Telegram Bot proxy mode We have introduced **Bot proxy mode** for Telegram bots in the Instant Messages Gateway. This mode enables operators who already host their own Telegram bot logic to run Smartico in parallel without replacing their existing webhook configuration. By design, **Telegram supports only one active webhook per bot**, preventing the registration of multiple webhook endpoints for the same Telegram bot. With *Bot proxy mode*, Telegram updates continue to be delivered to your existing webhook, and you simply forward those requests to Smartico using the **Bot Proxy URL** provided after saving the configuration. As long as the forwarded request preserves the original Telegram webhook payload format, Smartico can process the events in parallel with your internal bot logic. This allows you to extend Smartico messaging capabilities without disrupting your current bot integration.

The new version of the Favorite Product Report provides an overview of Favorite Product Segmentation, allowing you to monitor activity distribution, segment quality, and business health.

### Show ‘External User ID’ in Minigames We’ve added a new option to the mini-games template that allows you to display either the **External User ID** or the **Spin Transaction ID** in the game UI. When enabled, the selected ID is displayed on the main game screen after the player clicks Play/Spin and also appears in the winning pop-up at the end of the game. This option is disabled by default, meaning no ID is displayed in the game UI unless explicitly enabled.

This setting allows you to define a threshold. If the dynamic formula's calculated result falls below the set minimum, the reward will be considered invalid and not issued to the user. This functionality is designed to help you avoid issuing small, unproductive amounts.

For dynamic missions, you can use the Sub-header to show dynamic values - such as a player’s favorite game or provider instead of placing those tags in the mission title. On the UI, the sub-header appears directly below the mission title inside the mission modal.

When a time range is configured, the item will only be visible during those hours. Outside that window, it will remain hidden. The option is disabled by default, meaning the item will be visible all day. {% hint style="success" %} **Note:** 'Active Hours' can work independently or in combination with 'Availability Period' and 'Restrict Purchase by Time', depending on your configuration. {% endhint %}

By default, Smartico displays the same pop-up in all active tabs. With the new configuration, pop-ups are restricted to a single tab, preventing duplicate displays and reducing user distraction.

The configuration is availabe in the Label settings, under the front-end section ### Upload ‘User Markers’ via CSV We’ve added the ability to **set** User Markers using a CSV import in Segments. This update also allows you to modify properties that accept array values. {% hint style="warning" %} **Important:** Uploading tags via CSV will completely overwrite any existing tags for a user. It is not possible to append new tags or remove specific ones using this method. If you need granular control over tags, please use the REST API. {% endhint %}

**Required CSV Column -** `core_tags` **Accepted Formats:** * **\[ ]** - Sets empty value * **\["text"]** - Sets a single user marker containing text. * **\["text", "text1"]** - Sets multiple text-based user markers. * **\["text", 10]** - Sets multiple user markers containing both text and numeric values. * **\[10]** - Sets a numeric user marker. * **\[10, 20]** - Sets multiple numeric user markers.

Rrecommended bet / deposit amount model configuration

Possible options are: * The most recent bet / deposit amount * The most used bet / deposit amount * The maximum bet / deposit amount * The minimum bet / deposit amount * 'Upsell' statistical model * 'Conservative' statistical model The "**Upsell**" model challenges users to increase their upsell amounts while accounting for their typical behavior and the standard deviation around it. The "**Conservative**" model follows the current user behaviour without upsell intention.

Recalculation of models is happening every day in the period from 2:30 till 4:30 UTC. To change the logic, please get in touch with your Success Manager.

Now you have the flexibility to define the position individually for each template on both mobile and desktop devices. {% hint style="info" %} If the position is not defined during template creation, it will use the default value set in label settings. {% endhint %}

The new version provides a detailed analysis of your tournament usage, allowing you to track performance, costs, and product effectiveness. It’s designed to help you monitor product performance over time, across segments and regions, identify trends, and make data-driven decisions to optimize your tournament usage strategy.

{% embed url="" %} ### Limit the activities given by the Automation Rule. We’ve added a new option to Automation Rules that lets you control how many times an activity can be granted to a user within a specific period. Once the limit is reached, no further activity will be issued until the next period begins. This new setting, “**Max number of activities given per period**”, is available for both Scheduled and Real-time Automation rules. For example, you can configure a bonus-granting rule to limit it to 3 per user per day, ensuring each user receives the bonus only 3 times per day. {% hint style="warning" %} When “**Once in a lifetime**” is enabled, the “**Max number of activities given per period**” option is not available. {% endhint %}

This provides you with greater flexibility to set up different caps across your brands, in addition to the existing Label-level configuration. {% hint style="info" %} Note: The Bonus Cap configuration remains in the Label settings. However, if you configure a custom Bonus Cap at the Brand level, it will override the Label-level cap for that Brand. {% endhint %}
