Information

  • This power is NOT a bot. It is the ability to add a bot to a chat.
  • The BOT power should only access one chat at a time.
  • xat can withdraw the BOT power and refund the purchase price without warning.
  • No more than one BOT power is permitted per chat. If you attempt to assign more than one BOT power, it will be considered abuse and your chat may be removed from xat lists/charts.
  • If your bot breaks xat's terms of service, your chat could be deleted and you will lose the BOT power.
  • If you use a third party bot, you must provide the third party the identification number and password to your bot. You do not have to provide the third party the e-mail address that's associated with your bot.
  • Bots are unable to trade, so the xats, days and powers that are contained in the bot are safe.
  • Bots are unable to transfer xats or days.
  • The BOT power is the only acceptable way to connect a bot to a chat.
  • If your bot service is abusive, the bot service server(s) could be blocked from accessing xat.
  • Bots must adhere to xat's terms of service.
  • Bots must use a registered identification number.

Bot Service Providers

WARNING: Unfortunately, some bot service providers MAY be phishing websites, so we've created a list of what we believe to be reliable bot service providers. There are no guarantees as to whether the ones listed below are in fact reliable. While these bot service providers are known to provide working bots, it does NOT mean that xat endorses them on any level, nor are they managed by xat. xat encourages users to do their own research before choosing one. If you're not feeling completely confident, then you do not have to use their services. We expect that the chats listed below provide assistance with not only the BOT power, but the bot itself and to respond to users inquiries in a courteous and professional manner. We also expect the staff there to make their best efforts to protect the privacy and security of their users. Failure to comply with the rules may result in your bot service provider being removed from the list.

CAUTION: Never share your e-mail address, password or any other personally identifiable information with any bot service provider. We highly recommend you create a new xat account for your bot instead.

How to Assign your BOT Power

When it comes to assigning the BOT power to your chat, there are two parts you need to follow.

The first part is to type the smiley code (BOT) into the text box of your chat and press the "Enter" key. Once you do that, click on the smiley and click on the "Assign" button.

The second part is to click on the "Edit Your Chat" button, which will redirect you to your chat settings. Scroll down until you see the BOT power, located under the "Group Powers" category. Click on the check box that's located on the left side of the BOT power and click on the "Update these options" button.

Scroll down again until you see the BOT power, located under the "Group Powers" category and click on the "Edit" button. A screenshot has been provided above to give you a visualization.

Where it shows "Bot ID," type in the identification number of the xat account you created that will be used as your bot into the text box provided and click on the "Ok" button. A screenshot has been provided on the right side to give you a visualization.

Click on the "Update these options" button again and your bot is successfully connected to your chat.
