How to register a public Viber account for bot development?

Question

Bots

Hello.
I am registering a public account at the link https://www.viber.com/en/public-accounts I choose to use the API to write a Bot. I send an application for consideration and receive a letter in which the message: "Public accounts are available only to selected brands and enterprises and currently cannot be offered to you." I have already seen bots for ordering a taxi, so I plan to write the same one, but I can’t register.
What do you advise?

Answer 1

Hello
Initially, viber gave public accounts to all users. Those. even the "left" dudes from the firm "horns and hooves" could make themselves a public account. Then they began to test the advertising traffic of "cool" communities (public accounts) like a sportsmaster and other large companies. After this ad campaign was successful, they stopped giving anyone "small" public accounts. The word "small" means someone who will potentially never buy advertising traffic from them.
Those. in your case, you just have to wait and hope that sooner or later they will change their attitude towards the public, but for now the situation is higher.

I was approved within 24 hours. Approximately within a day and according to reviews it comes out.
But I don't know how things are now.
Above, Terras seems to be talking about ad accounts that can send messages to a phone number, those are really only big business, as I understand it. Although, you probably just need to collect a package of documents, just like providers ask to send SMS.
Yes, read my story on how to lose public accounts: https://geektimes.ru/post/285958/ so as not to lose. )
