Here Is How To Make Money On X Without Sweating

X, formally known as Twitter has several monetization options you can leverage to earn money from your posts.

CEO Elon Musk announced a major revision to its ad revenue share program which was launched in July 2023. The program allows verified users to earn money from ads displayed in replies to their posts.

X is one of the few platforms that monetize replies, encouraging creators to post engaging and conversational content.

1. Twitter X Ad Revenue Sharing

X ad revenue sharing program was recently introduced by Twitter CEO Elon Musk as part of his campaign to reward and encourage active users. Through this medium, both X and content creators on the platform will share returns on advertisements. X calculates the revenue shared with each user based on impressions (the number of times a tweet is seen). When an advertisement appears in a content creator’s reply, the number of impressions from verified accounts will determine how much the account is paid.

2. Twitter X Tips

X Tips is another verified way to earn money on the social media platform, similar to TikTok’s live gifts. Tips in the form of money and Bitcoin are sent off Twitter via third-party payment services. Twitter will not receive any portion of these payments, but the third-party payment services may charge fees.
