What is TeleBox?
TeleBox (formerly LinkBox) is a cloud-storage service popular in Asia — particularly Southeast Asia and India — for its low-friction signup, free-tier-with-bonuses model, and Telegram-style content-saving workflow. New users get 5 GB free on signup, with additional storage unlocked by watching ads, referring friends to create accounts, or upgrading to Premium. The mobile app supports backup of videos, photos, documents, audio, and arbitrary files with multi-device access — competing in the same niche as PikPak (also Asia-focused) but with a more conventional 'cloud storage app' UX rather than PikPak's torrent / magnet / Telegram-bot focus.
Where TeleBox fits is the budget Asia mobile-first cloud segment — users who want a free cloud for phone backup beyond Google's 15 GB cap, without paying $9.99/mo for Google One 2 TB. Account creation requires only an email + confirmation code, with the backend storage architecture (according to scattered third-party reports) layered atop Telegram's free file-hosting infrastructure. CloudsLinker connects with the account token shown on your TeleBox account page (linkbox.to/admin/account) plus your TeleBox email and password. Together they give programmatic read/write access to your stored files — useful for migrating content out of TeleBox to a more permanent / regional cloud (Google Drive, OneDrive, S3 archive).
Key features of TeleBox
Why connect TeleBox to CloudsLinker
CloudsLinker connects to TeleBox with the API token shown on your TeleBox account page (linkbox.to/admin/account) plus your TeleBox email and password. The token handles uploads and changes, while the login is used to list and download files, so all three are required. Once connected, transfers run server-to-server. Use as source for migrating TeleBox content out — particularly useful for users who started on TeleBox for free phone backup and have outgrown the bonus-storage model, or who want to consolidate onto a more conventional cloud (Google Drive, OneDrive).
What you can do with TeleBox on CloudsLinker
TeleBox → any cloud copy
Migrate from TeleBox to Google Drive, OneDrive, Dropbox, S3, Wasabi or B2 via your token and account login. Useful for offloading content before TeleBox's free-tier bonuses expire.
Runs on our servers
TeleBox transfers execute on CloudsLinker infrastructure. Useful for migrating multi-GB phone-backup libraries without consuming home internet for hours.
Scheduled batch sync
Hourly / daily / weekly schedules. Useful for ongoing offload of new TeleBox content (mobile photo backups, document scans) to a permanent cloud.
Filter by folder, type, size
Migrate only specific folders, exclude files larger than the destination's cap, or back up just photos / videos.
Common TeleBox transfer scenarios
Migrate TeleBox phone backup → Google Drive / OneDrive permanent storage
Many TeleBox users started on the platform for free phone backup beyond Google's 15 GB cap. As the bonus-storage model becomes harder to maintain (ads expire, referrals dry up), users migrate to conventional clouds. CloudsLinker copies the entire TeleBox library to Google Drive (15 GB free) or OneDrive (5 GB free) preserving folder structure.
Cold-archive TeleBox content → S3 / B2 (permanent)
TeleBox's bonus-storage model is dependent on user activity (ad-watching, referrals). For long-term archive that doesn't require ongoing maintenance, migrate TeleBox content to S3 Glacier Instant Retrieval ($0.004/GB) or B2 ($6/TB) via CloudsLinker. Pay-once, store-forever.
Backup TeleBox before account inactivity policies kick in
Free-tier cloud services often have inactive-account policies that delete content after 6–12 months of inactivity. If you have content on TeleBox you don't actively access, migrate it to a stable cloud (Google Drive, OneDrive, B2) via CloudsLinker before the inactivity timer triggers.
Cross-cloud DR for TeleBox photo / video archive
Family photos and videos backed up to TeleBox warrant a second copy on independent infrastructure. Schedule a CloudsLinker monthly incremental from TeleBox to Wasabi ($6.99/TB) or B2 — provider-independent redundancy.
Migrate TeleBox → PikPak (or vice versa) for feature consolidation
TeleBox and PikPak overlap in the Asia cloud-storage niche. Users sometimes consolidate onto one platform based on regional pricing or feature preferences. CloudsLinker handles cross-service migration preserving folder structure where both services support it.
How to connect TeleBox to CloudsLinker
TeleBox needs three credentials: an API token from your account page, plus your account email and password.
Before you start
Get your TeleBox token:
- Sign in to your TeleBox account (web at https://www.linkbox.to or via the mobile app).
- Open https://www.linkbox.to/admin/account and choose My Account.
- Copy the value beside Token.
- Keep it private: it is used together with your email and password.
Connection steps
- In CloudsLinker, click Add Cloud → choose TeleBox.
- Enter a display name (e.g. “TeleBox — phone backup”).
- Enter the token from step 4 above, your TeleBox email and your TeleBox password. All three are required; without the email and password file downloads fail.
- Click Confirm — CloudsLinker signs in to TeleBox and shows the connection ready.
Revoke access
To end CloudsLinker’s access later, delete the TeleBox connection under My Linkers in CloudsLinker, then change your TeleBox password. Reconnect any time by adding TeleBox again with the token, email and password.
