Twitter announced its paid service Super Follow in February. Since then, the company has unveiled several new features coming to the social network. Now researcher Jane Manchun Wong has discovered that Twitter is working on a display of Super Follower counts.
Last week, the company announced that it will be revamping the user’s profile page, and with Wong’s discovery, we get a better look at what could happen soon.
According to her, the Super Follow button can appear in two different forms: as a small circular button or as a large Super Follow. Along with this new profile page, Twitter will also display a payment button for tips, which is already a feature that Twitter is slowly rolling out: Tip Jar.
As Wong revealed, Twitter is also making its color scheme more monochrome and also using its new ‘Chirp’ font.
In March, the company revealed that its Super Follow feature will be available as an in-app purchase on the iOS app, which will give it a 30% discount. On board, Kayvon Beykpour, Twitter manager of consumer products, addressed this:
The way I would think of that in the context of Super Follows where we’re building this layer that wasn’t there before – even though that $ 10 comes back to $ 7 due to a 30% charge, it’s still $ 7 more that you could do on Twitter than before. So don’t get me wrong, I wish it was $ 9 instead of $ 7, but at the end of the day, it’s not something that we have direct influence over on one platform. So it’s not a priority for us at the moment.
Besides the Super Follow button, Twitter is working on several paid features. For example, Twitter Blue is the name of the next subscription service on the platform which may have different tiers. Users can tip creators through Tip Jar, and the company has announced ticketed spaces for its competitor Clubhouse which launched in April.
At the moment, we still don’t know when Super Follower will release, but it looks like it will be sooner rather than later.
