Twitter Super Follows lets users make money from content
People who have at least 10,000 Twitter followers will be able to generate revenue by charging others for subscriptions to their content.
Users must be at least 18, live in the United States, and have more than 25 posts in the last 30 days before they’re eligible for consideration. Once these criteria are met, Twitter will review their account and decide if they qualify. If approved, they’ll receive an email notifying them of their eligibility and inviting them to fill out the application form.
To start out with, you need to purchase a Twitter Super Follows Account from an external provider. You then use this account to manage which tweets go where. This way, you don’t just get charged for every tweet sent through Twitter but instead can control who gets to see them.
After all, Twitter offers a variety of options for businesses to get started. It may be worth trying out one of these options, even if they aren’t perfect.
Unlike YouTube, Facebook (and even Instagram), and even Tiktok now, Twitter has been slower than expected to provide monetization options on its own platform. And the one available option for video content is available to big publishers via their new program called Amplify. But Twitter has been working on making more monetization options available to its users.
To make money off a Twitter account, you can sell ads within the app itself (Tip Jar) or create a space where people can pay to attend an event (Ticketed Spaces). Both allow you to take advantage of the large audience on Twitter without having to do much work yourself.
Monetization of content
Your small business can monetize its digital content across different platforms by using them. For instance, Twitter isn’t doing anything special right now. Still, most other platforms already allow their users to create revenue from their content.
Ads, sponsorships, and affiliate links aren’t the only ways to monetize your YouTube channel. You can also earn extra income by helping people solve their problems.
You need to keep an eye out for any opportunities where you can earn money from your writing. If you get some traction, you may be able to start making money off of your blog.
Super Follows is an incentive system where people’s most engaged followers can offer them money. When someone offers a super follow subscription, their super follows can view special tweets crafted just for them. Super followers receive badges on all their responses to the person they’ve super followed, making them stand out from the crowd.
At present, we’re still in the early days of Super Follows. Only people who participated in our initial beta test can purchase the subscription at present. You can only interact with content produced by Super Follows via an iPhone/iPad or Android smartphone/tablet.
What is Super Follows?
Super Follows is an online community where people follow each other’s Twitter accounts. It gives them access to extra content and special features.
You can follow anyone who has liked any of your posts.
Anyone who has purchased Super Followers can sign up to be part of the initial test group. To see if they qualify, look for the “Super Follow” button on their profile.
A Super Follows subscription includes everything from the regular Follows service plus additional perks.
Those offering Super Follows choose which bonus content to share.
You can learn more about what to expect when you follow people on Instagram.
Is there any way I can share Super Follows tweets?
As a Super Fan, you can retweet and quote tweet super followers’ tweets. Only other Super Fans will see retweets, shared links or direct messages from super followers’ tweets. Non-fans won’t be able to see any of these things, but they will be told to subscribe by their friends in order for them to see the super follower’s tweet.
Can I follow multiple people?
You can visit the profile of the person who has a Super Following account and tap or click “Super Following” to learn more about what he offers and purchase his special subscription. Each subscription is its own purchase.
If you ever want to cancel a SuperFollows subscription, you’ll follow the instructions for canceling a subscription.
What’s the price for Super Followers?
You can choose from three pricing options for their service: 2.99 per month, 4.99 per month, or 9.99 per month.
How much of my monthly subscription dollars go towards supporting the person I follow?
Superfollowing: You can earn up to 97 percent of what you pay after in-app purchase (IAP) fees, up to $5,000 in lifetime earnings per person based on Twitter’s terms, and after $5,000 in total lifetime earnings, the creators can earn up to 80 percent of revenue after in- app purchase fees.
**For demo purposed,** a creator is based in the U.S., and sets their super followers subscription cost to 4.99$. Someone from the U.S. subscribes (available on both iOS and android) for $4.99. They haven’t earned $50k in total earnings on twitter’s monetization products so far.
*Note: This example only applies to iOS apps and not to Android apps. Also, web-based purchases aren’t included.
For $4.99 per month, creators get access to an ad-free experience, enhanced analytics, and the ability to earn extra through special offers and sponsorships.

What’s a subscription link?
Subscription links allow creators to easily share the Super Follow functionality with people they want to be able to follow them.
After following someone, you should expect things to happen.
Super Follows benefits include:
You’ll get exclusive tweets from people who are following you too.
Notifications for exclusive tweets
You can also enable tweet exclusions if you want them not to be alerted every time someone mentions you in their tweets.
Join these spaces as a listener who can ask to speak in them—you’ll be able to participate in live, subscriber-exclusive conversations.
When you reply to someone who has followed back, you’ll get a public badge identifying you as a super follower so everyone can see it. If you’re using an iPhone, you can turn off the setting so that no one sees your badge when they look at your profile page. For now, we don’t support hiding the badge for anyone else’s tweets, but we hope to add that soon!
If this setting is set to On, then even if someone else has not enabled Super Follower Mode, their Super Follower badge will show up next to yours when you respond to one of their tweets. However, they won’t be able to see who you’re following.
Tap their Twitter Profile > Their Tweets (tab) > See all of their Super Follows tweets in one place. You’ll be able to view it for as long as they’re included in your list of Super Follows.

Yes! If they offer a special Twitter promotion where you can get thousands of followers for just $5/month, you can always join them by following their account.
Will Twitter be removing its free tweets feature?
It’s not going anywhere. Super Follows just give people another option for supporting their favorite voices on Twitter
