X Releases Payment of Ad Revenue to Qualified Creators
It seems that X, formerly known as Twitter, has recently initiated payouts to creators for ad revenue share over the last two weeks. This development has been observed and reported by several sources, including @cb_doge, @HSajwanization, @yahaya__baffa, @Aahil2020khan, and @FatimaAli172434. The payments are part of X’s program to share a portion of the ad revenue generated from content creators’ posts with them, a move aimed at incentivizing and rewarding creators for their contributions on the platform.
To be eligible for the ad revenue sharing program, users must be subscribed to X Premium, previously known as Twitter Blue. The program has specific eligibility criteria, including having a large enough audience and generating a certain level of engagement with their content. Creators who meet these requirements and opt to join the program are entitled to a share in the ad revenue generated from their posts.
The process to set up payouts is streamlined through X’s monetization feature, where users can establish a Stripe account to receive their earnings. Payments are issued to creators who have generated more than $50 in cumulative ad revenue share payments.
This initiative by X reflects a broader trend in social media platforms to financially support content creators, recognizing the value they bring to the platform through their contributions. As the program continues to evolve, it will be interesting to see how it impacts the X community and the broader creator economy.
