Three distinct premium tiers were mentioned in X’s code earlier this month, according to @aaronp613. Separately, Bloomberg revealed that the business is experimenting with several paid plans to boost sales.
The goal of Musk and the company is to boost X’s revenue. This week, the business began testing a $1 annual plan for new users in the Philippines and New Zealand for posting, liking, and reposting functions. According to the social network, this action was taken to lessen the number of bots using the site and was not intended to be “a profit driver.”
According to Reuters, ad revenue has steadily decreased since Musk’s acquisition. Therefore, it is not surprising that Musk is taking action to increase subscription revenue.
With former NBCU executive Linda Yaccarino as CEO, the company is attempting to entice advertisers and publish desirable stats. Yaccarino claimed earlier this month that X has 500 million daily posts and 245 million daily active members.
