How do I set up birthday reminders in a Telegram group?

Add @BirthdayReminderProBot, have each member run /bday DD-MM, and set the timezone with /gtz. The bot then greets each person in the group at 09:00 on their day.

Will other members see my birth year?

Only if you included one in /bday. The day and month always show in greetings; the year is stored but never displayed or used to compute an age.

Is there a limit on how many birthdays a group can track?

Free groups can store up to 25 birthdays. Pro removes bookkeeping friction further with day-before DM reminders for the whole group. For a group under 25 members the free tier covers everyone; only larger chats need Pro to track them all.

How do I delete my birthday from the bot?

Run /forgetme. After you confirm, it deletes your saved date from every group the bot knows. Dates are stored per group and never shown in another chat.

How to Never Miss a Group Member Birthday in Telegram

Every group has that awkward moment: someone says "wait, it was your birthday yesterday?" Big chats make it worse — with dozens of members, nobody keeps track. A birthday reminder bot removes the human memory from the loop entirely.

BirthdayReminderProBot gives each member a single command to save their own date, and from then on the bot does the remembering. At 09:00 in the group's timezone on the day, it posts a greeting naming the person, and /upcoming shows everyone what's coming so gifts and messages can be planned rather than improvised.

Setup takes about a minute, works in any group, and nobody has to hand their birthday to an admin in a spreadsheet again.

Steps

Add the bot and let members save their date. Add @BirthdayReminderProBot to your group. Each member runs /bday 14-03 (day-month) — a year is optional, and nothing in the bot shows an age from it. Everyone manages their own entry; no admin bookkeeping.
Set the group's timezone. Run /gtz +2 (or your offset) so the greeting posts at 09:00 local time instead of 09:00 UTC. Once set, only a group admin can change it.
See what's coming. Run /upcoming to list the next birthdays in the group, soonest first, with days-away counts. It's the answer to "when is Ahmed's birthday again?" without anyone keeping a list.
Pro: give the group a heads-up the day before. Pro (one-time 150 Stars per group) sends a DM to every other member the day before a birthday, so people have time to write something or organize a gift. Pro also unlocks a custom greeting via /greeting Happy birthday {name}! 🎉.
Privacy check before you invite people. Birthdays are stored per group — a date saved in one group never appears in another. /forgetme deletes a member's saved birthday from every group (after they confirm), and the day-before DM only reaches people who have already started a chat with the bot.

Good to know

Free: up to 25 birthdays per group, group greeting on the day, and the /upcoming list.
Pro per group (150 Stars one-time): day-before DM to other members and a custom greeting template.
Members save their own date with /bday — the admin never collects or stores anyone's birthday.
Use it without adding the bot: type @BirthdayReminderProBot 12 May in any chat for a one-off days-until card.
A real setup: a book club of 14 people adds @BirthdayReminderProBot. Each member runs /bday DD-MM once — Priya saves 14-03, Tom 22-07, and so on. The admin sets /gtz +2 so greetings land at 09:00 local time. On the 14th of March the bot posts "Happy birthday, Priya!" in the group at 09:00, and /upcoming the week before had shown her birthday three days out, so two members had time to organize a group gift. Because birthdays are stored per group, the same members' dates in a separate family group never leak across.
