The short message service Twitter has introduced a paid subscription model. Prominent users have been able to offer exclusive content for a fee since Wednesday, as the online service announced. The function is available to influencers, musicians, journalists and sports experts, among others. The subscriptions should cost three to ten dollars per month.

Twitter is initially offering the new “Super Follows” function in the USA and Canada. In the coming weeks, the offer is to be expanded to other countries. The US group initially collects three percent of the subscription income as a fee. From a threshold of 50,000 dollars, the proportion increases to 20 percent.

The short message service is currently looking for new ways to tap new sources of income without placing additional advertising. In Canada and Australia, the US company launched the “Twitter Blue” service in June, which offers users additional functions for a fee.
