Zapier can carry a TradingView alert into Telegram with a Zap, and it can do a great deal more besides. The question is whether a general automation platform is the right shape for one alert route.
Zapier is a general automation platform that connects thousands of apps, and a TradingView alert reaching Telegram is one Zap among many. Its Free plan allows 100 tasks a month with two-step Zaps only and no webhooks. Its Professional plan lists $29.99 a month on monthly billing, or $19.99 a month billed annually, on the 750-task tier. Zapier meters work in tasks, and each successful action step counts. AlertSync is built for this one route, starts at ₹149/mo, and counts an alert once however many Telegram chats it reaches.
Zapier is a no-code automation platform that links apps through Zaps, each one a trigger followed by one or more actions. Its pricing page lists webhooks, multi-step Zaps and premium apps on its paid plans, and it bills usage in tasks. It is built for connecting many unrelated services, so a TradingView alert arriving in Telegram is one use among thousands.

Your alert is one step in a longer process. If a TradingView signal also has to add a row to a spreadsheet, open a support ticket, update a CRM and send an email, Zapier's app library and multi-step Zaps handle that in one place, and AlertSync does not. A team that already runs Zapier for other work will also find the marginal cost of one more Zap low.
The alert only needs to reach Telegram, and you want that to cost as little as possible. There is no Zap to build and no task meter to watch: you paste one webhook URL, and fan-out to several chats still counts as a single alert. AlertSync also bills Indian customers in INR through cards, UPI and net-banking, and it has trading controls such as mute, status and a full alert log that a generic workflow does not.
You do not have to commit to find out. The Free plan needs no card and covers 50 alerts a month, and switching an existing TradingView alert over is a single field: replace the webhook URL and save. Your alert message body, TradingView variables and templates all carry across unchanged, because AlertSync accepts plain text and JSON alike.

AlertSync Starter is ₹149/mo for 500 alerts a month, and Pro is ₹399/mo for 5,000. Zapier's free plan gives more raw units, 100 tasks a month, so for a very low volume it may cost nothing. Prices checked 9 October 2026; check Zapier's pricing page for current rates.
Zapier counts each successful action step as a task, and triggers are not counted. A Zap that posts one alert to three Telegram chats needs three action steps, so it uses three tasks for that alert. On AlertSync, one alert fanned out to several destinations counts once against your monthly quota.
Zapier's free plan does not include webhooks, and it allows two-step Zaps only. Webhooks are listed on its Professional plan and above. AlertSync's free plan includes one webhook and 50 alerts a month, with no card required.
AlertSync runs a managed bot, so there is no BotFather step. You send a six-digit code to @AlertSyncOfficial_Bot to link your account, then add that bot to any group or channel you want alerts in. Connecting Telegram inside a Zap means linking the Telegram app to your Zapier account and choosing the chat to post into.
