Elon Musk, the founder of Tesla Motors and SpaceX, recently announced that Twitter users would now be able to make money from the platform. On his official Twitter account, Musk noted that subscriptions were being enabled on the platform – a way for most engaged followers to help creators get paid for their contributions on Twitter. The move was exciting news for many, as they would now be able to monetize their content, however, which type of content and how it would work was not yet known. This changed when Shibetoshi Nakamoto, the creator of the popular cryptocurrency Dogecoin, took to Twitter to share a screenshot of Musk’s Twitter profile, showing that he had subscribed to his account. In response, Elon tweeted that creators were now able to see a new payment system in the form of subscriptions for longform content, images and videos.
At the moment, users in the US that meet the eligibility requirements can apply to participate in the Subscription programme, as stated on Twitter’s help page. The move was seen as incredibly important in helping creators to monetize their work and has been met with excitement by many social media users. Consequently, they are now able to build relationships with their most engaged followers and benefit from their contributions.
