Twitter will allow publishers to charge users from May

October 3, 2025

Musk added that this feature, which will launch in May, will force users who “do not subscribe to a monthly subscription to pay a higher price for each article that casually pops up in front of them and wants to read it.”

Musk announced on Friday that Twitter would deduct 10% of revenue from content subscriptions after the first year, noting that the company would not deduct that percentage from revenue in the first twelve months.

He said that includes subscriptions to long texts and hour-long video clips.

Since Elon Musk took over the company, he has accelerated a number of organizational and product changes.

The company introduced the blue tick as a paid service and reduced its workforce by around 80%.

Musk has made adjustments to the business to boost revenue after the social media platform saw a drop in ad revenue last year ahead of the acquisition that took place last October.
