Elon Musk Could Introduce Higher-Level Subscription Options For X
Elon Musk-owned popular microblogging platform X (formerly known as Twitter) plans to offer more than one subscription tier that offers the ability to remove ads soon. The premium subscription offer can be divided into three parts: Premium Basic, Premium Standard and Premium Plus.
According to MacRumors, Premium Basic includes full ads in the For You feed, Premium Standard claims that the For You feed has half the ads, and the Premium Plus plan has ads in the For You feed.
“Given the mention of the For You feed, it appears that all levels will continue to have ads in replies. Revenue from reply ads will be used to pay the social network’s content creators,” the report said.
There is currently no information on what the new levels might be priced at. There are also no other details about the differences in plans or launch information.
Elon Musk also plans to bring video game streaming and live shopping features to the X. In a video released Monday, Musk shared his successful test of the X video game streaming system.
“I tested the X video game streaming system last night. It works! I’m trying to complete the Tier 100 Nightmare Dungeon tonight live on this platform,” the Tesla CEO wrote on social media. Musk also streamed his Nightmare Dungeon game in a nearly 40-minute video.
Recently, Twitter CEO Linda Yaccarino had confirmed that users will soon be able to make payments with X. The microblogging app also lets you share long videos, write longer tweets, and subscribe to selected handles.
Yaccarino recently revealed that the company has paid out nearly $20 million (over Rs. 166 billion) to creators so far. The social media platform began paying creators in July a share of the ad revenue they earned from ads shown in replies to their posts to other verified users.
