tg A complete guide to obtaining and filtering US data: a practical tutorial from number generation to active verification

If you are exploring the North American market, tg US data (i.e., the numbers and attributes of Telegram users in the United States) is a link that cannot be ignored in cross-border customer acquisition. Compared with general global numbers, American Telegram users have high spending power, are active in English communities, and are highly receptive to independent websites and Web3 projects. But how to obtain this data efficiently? How to filter out the truly activated and active numbers? This article will use a complete process to help you master the generation, screening, export and deduplication of TG US data from scratch, and share key indicators and cost control techniques.

What is tg US data? Why is it needed for cross-border customer acquisition?

tg US data refers to the mobile phone numbers of Telegram users who are located in the United States, as well as additional attributes obtained after testing, including:

Activation status: Whether the number has been registered with Telegram.
Activity: Whether you have logged in or used Telegram within the specified time window (such as the past 7 days/30 days).
Gender and Age: The platform can detect the personal information disclosed by some users and return the gender and age range (such as “about 30 years old” and other fields).
tgid: Telegram’s internal unique ID, which can be used for subsequent API docking or user identification.

For overseas teams, having high-quality TG US data means that they can:

Send private messages directly to US users or invite them to join the group;
Use activity and gender tags for precision marketing to increase conversion rates;
Quickly collect samples in user research to assist product decision-making.

Main application scenarios of tg US data

Different business scenarios have very different field requirements for tg US data. Here are three common scenarios to help you get started.

Community operation and tg fans addition

If you want to establish a Telegram community in the United States (such as cryptocurrency discussions, overseas shopping sharing, etc.), the core indicator is open and active. You don’t need to perform gender screening on all numbers, but you must ensure that the target number has logged in within the last 30 days, otherwise your invitation to add followers may be lost.

Recommended field combination: activated + active (last 30 days) + tgid

Cross-border e-commerce independent station promotion

Suppose you are selling beauty products, which are more suitable for female users; or selling men’s fitness equipment, which requires a high proportion of male numbers. At this point the gender field is very critical. You can first filter out active U.S. numbers with female gender, and then place coupons or new product notifications. The system will greatly increase the click-through rate.

Recommended field combination: activated + active (last 7 days) + gender + age (optional)

Accurate user research

If your product is aimed at young users aged 25–35, you want to screen out samples that have both a gender distribution and an age range. Although the age field in tg US data is not accurate to the ID card level, it is enough to help you locate people “about 30 years old”. Coupled with activity, you can ensure that research messages are seen in time.

Recommended field combination: activated + active + gender + age

How to obtain high-quality tg US data? (step-by-step tutorial)

The following takes KK-DATA as an example to demonstrate the complete operation process from generating a US number pool to batch screening and exporting. There is no need to subscribe to a package during the entire process, and it is billed based on the number of tests, and the number generation is completely free.

Step 1: Generate a US number pool

Generate using country code segment: Select the country as “United States” (country code + 1), and set the generated quantity. The system will randomly generate a mobile phone number that conforms to the rules of the US number range. This process is completely free and you can generate tens or even hundreds of thousands of numbers without worrying about your balance.
Use custom number range: If you have a number range for a specific city/operator, you can upload a CSV file and the system will generate it in batches based on the number range you provide.

Zero cost in the production process

The generated numbers are only used as a “pool to be tested” and will not incur any charges. Only when you submit the number screening task, the system will deduct fees based on the actual number of detected numbers. Therefore, it is recommended to generate a large enough number pool with confidence and then filter it in batches later.

Step 2: Submit the screening task (activate + active + gender)

After generating the number pool, enter the number screening task module.

Select platform: Telegram.
Select the detection type: check “Enable detection”, “Active detection”, “Gender detection” (and the age field returned together with gender).
Set the active window: such as “near 7 days” or “near 30 days”. The smaller the window, the more timely the active numbers obtained are, but the number may be smaller.
Import numbers to be detected: You can directly copy in batches from the number pool just generated, or upload a CSV/TXT file.
The system will immediately display the estimated cost (based on the number of imported numbers × unit price), please confirm it and submit it.

Single task supports up to about 1 million numbers, meeting the needs of most teams.

Step 3: Export and Deduplication

After the task is completed, you will receive a notification on the console (Telegram notification can also be set). When exporting results, you can choose CSV or TXT format, which contains the following fields:

number
Open status (yes/no) -Activity status (yes/no, and last active timestamp)
Gender (male/female/unknown)
Age (e.g. “around 30 years old”) -tgid

The exported data can be used for subsequent marketing or imported into a CRM system.

Important Tip: If you perform the screening task multiple times, it is recommended to use the platform’s built-in data deduplication warehouse. It will automatically record the detected numbers to avoid repeatedly detecting the same number, thereby saving balance.

When filtering tg US data, which indicators are the most critical?

Many teams only focus on the “activated” status when first screening. In fact, activity is the watershed that determines marketing effectiveness. For an account that is open but has not been logged in for half a year, the messages sent will most likely go unanswered. The following table compares the actual meaning of common indicators:

Metrics	Meaning	Marketing Value
Activation	Number registered with Telegram	Basic access threshold
Active (last 30 days)	Logged into Telegram within 30 days	High value, accessible
Active (last 7 days)	Logged into Telegram within 7 days	Higher probability of immediate response
Gender	User disclosure of gender	Targeted delivery
Age	User disclosure age (range level)	Crowd portrait assistance

Note the active window

If you are promoting a limited-time event, give priority to “active in the past 7 days”; if it is a long-term community, select “active in the past 30 days” to get a larger base. The larger the activity window, the more numbers will be filtered out, but the activity will be diluted.

Regarding the age field: Please understand that it comes from Telegram public information filled in by users, and is not national identity data. It can tell you that the person “looks about 30 years old,” but it cannot be used as an accurate proof of age. In marketing analytics, it’s enough to support broad stratifications like “25–35 years old” without being overly precise.

tgWhat is the difference between US data and data from other regions? (Compare before purchasing)

The behavior and characteristics of Telegram users in different regions are obviously different, so you should focus on the following when choosing a market:

Comparison dimensions	United States	Southeast Asia (Vietnam/Indonesia)	Europe (Germany/France)
User base	Medium, but strong spending power	Large, Telegram penetration rate is high	Medium, focusing on privacy
Active habits	Active in the evening, more active on weekends	Used throughout the day, also active during working hours	Prefer weekends and evenings
Gender ratio	Close to 1:1	Most men	Slightly higher proportion of women
Common uses	Cryptocurrency, community, friendship	Work communication, shopping group	Interest group, news

If your product has a high unit price and a long conversion cycle, American users are a better choice; if you need rapid volume production and low-cost testing, Southeast Asia may be your first stop. KK-DATA supports covering multiple countries at the same time. You can mix different country numbers in one task, but it is recommended to filter separately to facilitate subsequent data analysis**.

How to control the cost and quality of tg US data acquisition?

Use the following four methods to get the most valuable active US numbers for the least amount of money:

Small batch test first: For the first time, only 2000-5000 numbers are generated and screened, and the pass rate of different active windows is observed. For example, if the activity rate in the past 30 days is 40%, then you can estimate that 10,000 numbers can obtain approximately 4,000 effective users.
Use deduplication warehouse: Before each task, the system will automatically detect the detected number. If you use the same number pool multiple times, you must turn on the deduplication function to avoid double deductions for the tested numbers.
Follow the real-time price of the console: The unit prices for different platforms and different detection types are different. Telegram’s activation detection, activity detection, and gender detection are billed separately. The specific amount is subject to the application console. It is not recommended to charge too much balance at one time.
Regular cleaning of invalid numbers: There is no need to retain a large number of overdue and suspended numbers in the number pool. Submit the number screening task immediately after generation, discard the number pool with an activation rate lower than 20% in time, and only retain high-value data.

FAQ

**Q: What fields does tg US data contain? ** Answer: Including Telegram activation status (yes/no), activity level (customizable time window, such as the past 7 days or the past 30 days), gender (male/female/unknown), age range (such as “around 30 years old”), tgid, etc. All fields can be viewed in the CSV file when exporting.

**Q: After generating a US number, how do you know which numbers are actually using Telegram? ** Answer: Generating a number only generates a string of numbers, and it is impossible to determine whether Telegram has been registered. You need to judge through the number screening task (activation detection + active detection). KK-DATA will automatically detect each number and return activation and active results without manual verification one by one.

**Q: How accurate is the age of tg US data? ** Answer: The age field comes from Telegram’s public personal information filled in by the user, and is not national ID card level data. It can help marketers understand a general group of people (such as “about 30 years old”), but it cannot be used as a precise ID credential. It is recommended to regard it as a crowd stratification reference rather than a precise positioning tool.

**Q: Will billing by item exceed the budget? ** Answer: No. Before submitting each task, the system will display the estimated cost (number of numbers × unit price), and you can confirm before submitting. At the same time, the balance of the console can be seen in real time. It is recommended to only deposit 50 USDT for the first time for a small-scale test, and then add more after becoming familiar with it.

**Q: Can I use the same batch of US number data multiple times? ** Answer: Yes. But be aware that if you retest a number that has already been tested, additional balance will be consumed. The platform provides a data deduplication warehouse that automatically filters detected numbers across tasks to avoid repeated deductions. It is recommended to enable the deduplication function to save costs.

If you want to start obtaining accurate TG US data immediately, you can log in to the console and try to generate and screen numbers. Generate numbers for free and charge based on the number of tests, no subscription pressure.
