Twitter (X) launches two new subscriptions to try to get your money

Elon Musk kept his promise and X, formerly known as Twitter, now has two additional subscriptions. with which they hope that more users will finally decide to open their wallet. Especially with an offer priced below X Premium – formerly Twitter Blue -. Of course, everyone has different suggestions.

First of all we have XBasicwhat will it cost 3 dollars per month and will be considered the cheapest Twitter subscription. Basically this plan includes almost everything already available in X Premium:

• Editing a publication.
• Longer posts.
• Cancel publication.
• Priority position in conversations and searches.
• Text format (bold and italic).
• Popular messages.
• Folders with saved items.
• Custom app icons.
• Selected articles.
• Reading mode.
• Longer videos.
• Themes.
• NFT as a profile photo.
• Two-factor authentication via SMS
• Opportunity to create a community.
• Access to Media Studio.
• Access to X Pro (formerly Tweettdeck).

So what’s the difference with Premium? What You won’t have the blue verification badge and will see the same amount of ads as a user with a free account.. If that doesn’t bother you, you might be happy paying $3 a month for everything else. Without a doubt, those people and companies who have lost access to Tweetdeck may consider this plan as an ideal option to reuse the tool.

Then there is X Plus, the most expensive plan to date. It will cost $16 per month and, besides remove all advertisements V deadlines “For you” and “Subscription” too will increase the visibility of your replies to tweets. Of course, it includes all the features of X Premium, including verification.

It is important to note that at the moment You can only subscribe to X Basic and X Plus via the web version of Twitter.. That is, it is not enabled in mobile applications on iOS and Android. Most likely because they want to avoid the fees that Apple and Google charge for recurring payments in their app stores.

Thus, from a social network offering new features to all its users, Twitter has turned into a platform with many features blocked behind a paywall. Obviously, those led by Elon Musk They need to increase their income as soon as possible. The company is not in a very good financial position, and these subscriptions could save its life. Especially X Basic, which will attract the attention of more than one.

Will they be successful? It remains a mystery. We’ll have to wait for their next financial reports to see if their move worked. Be careful because their next big move may be to charge you for any new accounts you just sign up for. Trials are already underway in New Zealand and the Philippines.
