In the future, Twitter wants to enable its users to earn money with their tweets. In February, the short message service announced a corresponding feature called Super Followers. According to app researcher Jane Manchum Wong, it should not be open to all users. According to Wong, in order to be able to charge money for additional content, users have to meet certain criteria.
You need to
older than 18 years be,
at least 10,000 followers to have
at least 25 tweets in the past 30 days have posted
Wong writes on Twitter, where she also shows screenshots of the planned feature:

It should be possible to ask for money for additional tweets, badges for followers, newsletters for subscribers or access to community groups in individual Twitter feeds.
Income estimated at more than $ 6,000 a month
Up to 6,250 dollars per month could be earned in this way if 2 percent of the followers were able to persuade them to pay just under 5 dollars per month, it is said.
It is not known whether and how much Twitter will record the rumored super-follower fees of just under $ 5 per month.
Also content for adults
If you want to earn money on Twitter, you have to fill out an application beforehand, which Twitter will check within 10 days. Among other things, the content category must be specified. According to Wong, content for adults should also be permitted.
Twitter recently launched a subscription, initially for users in Australia and Canada. Subscribers should be able to subsequently change tweets for a certain period of time.
