Twitter’s Engagement Thresholds for its Creator Ad Revenue Share Program Will be Hard for Most to Reach
Twitter’s new ad revenue share program for tweet replies is getting closer to launch – though the qualifications for monetization, as displayed in the latest welcome screen for the offering, are likely to put most users out of the running to make money from their tweet content.
Last month, Twitter owner Elon Musk announced that, soon Twitter Blue subscribers would be able to sign-up for a share of any revenue generated from ads shown to other verified users in their tweet responses.
In a few weeks, X/Twitter will start paying creators for ads served in their replies. First block payment totals $5M.
Note, the creator must be verified and only ads served to verified users count.

As you can see, Elon announced that this would be available ‘in a few weeks’ about a month ago, so the expectation is that this is coming any minute. And based on this new screenshot, shared by T(w)itter Daily News, the entry requirements for tweet monetization will be high.
