Twitter has a new feature and it was launched this week. The social media platform introduced “Super Follows” and it allows users to earn money by simply posting a tweet.
As per CNBC, Twitter’s new money-making feature was activated on Wednesday, Sept. 2. Under the rule, users who have more than 10,000 followers can start earning by tweeting as they can charge other users for access to their “subscriber-only” content.
Apparently, only the most popular users on Twitter can benefit from this new feature at this time. They can generate extra income from their followers but they must first apply and be approved to have a Super Follows account.
Not all Twitter users are eligible, so to qualify and be able to set up a Super Follows account, an individual must have at least 10,000 followers and have posted at least 25 tweets in the last 30 days. The other requirements are: the user must be 18 years old and up, and residing in the U.S.
Once the qualifications are met, they can now apply through the Twitter app. Under the “Monetization” menu, applicants just need to find the “Super Follows” and if Twitter determines the user to be eligible, one can now proceed to apply for an account.
It was said that users can choose a category for their content such as gaming, art, and others. Applicants will also be asked to complete their “about me” page to complete the application. It was not mentioned how long the users should wait to know if they were accepted or not but Twitter said that all applicants will be included in the “waitlist.”
Approved users will be able to freely set their own subscription price for their followers to access their tweets. The price ranges from $2.99, $4.99, or $9.99. It should be noted that those with Super Follows accounts can designate their tweets for either regular or paying followers.
“Creating Super Follows content is for anyone who brings their unique perspectives and personalities to Twitter to drive the public conversation, including activists, journalists, musicians, content curators, writers, gamers, astrology enthusiasts, skincare and beauty experts, comedians, fantasy sports experts, and more,” Esther Crawford, staff product manager at Twitter said in a blog post. “Everyday their Tweets, Spaces, Direct Messages, photos and videos resonate with their audience and create vibrant conversations on Twitter.”
