Gated Group Access Setup
Overview
Gated Group Access is how Hubz controls who can join or remain in your Telegram group. It works by verifying on-chain ownership and enforcing access rules automatically inside Telegram.
Gated Group Access is configured per group and managed entirely through the Hubz app. Once enabled, Hubz checks each member against your rules and handles enforcement without manual moderation.
Hubz currently supports token-based and NFT-based access, with additional access methods (such as staking) expanding on the same model.
What You Can Do with Gated Group Access
With gating, you can:
Restrict group access to token or NFT holders
Create VIP or private groups for supporters
Apply multiple access conditions using AND / OR logic
Guide non-eligible users to Buy or Earn access
Choose between One-Time or Ongoing verification
All access rules can be updated, paused, or re-enabled at any time.
