How to remove or hide the Telegram rating

Can you hide the rating

Telegram's privacy settings have no separate switch for the rating: if you have one, everyone who opens your profile sees the level badge. Only accounts with a zero rating — those that haven't spent Stars yet — have no badge.

Part of the rating is visible only to you anyway:

• how many points are pending and when the rating will update;
• the future rating after those points are added;
• how many points the next level still needs.

How to remove the rating badge

There's no button for it. The level drops only through deductions — Stars refunds and converting gifts to Stars — and that's no way out: such deductions push the rating below zero, and Telegram shows a negative rating in red as a sign of unreliable payments.

If you just don't want to show your gifts, you can hide them from the profile — that's a separate setting, see how to hide gifts on Telegram. The rating stays.

How to remove a negative rating

The red badge goes away when the rating gets back above zero. For that you need to spend Stars in Telegram: gifts from the shop count in full, the marketplace, paid messages and posts at 20%. The rating window shows how many Stars it takes, and points are added in about three weeks. Details in Telegram negative rating.

You can buy those Stars in the Shiba Bank bot — about a third cheaper than in Telegram on a phone (price comparison), with crypto, by card or SBP.
