In parallel with the announcement of the subscription plan, X is taking measures to combat manipulation, spam and bot activity on its platform.
Elon MuskCEO of various innovative companies and most recently owner of social media platform X (formerly Twitter) Confirmed Launch of two new premium subscription plans for X.
New premium subscription options on X
X Premium, the current subscription service for X, offers a range of exclusive features for $8 per month. These features include custom emojis, additional character limits for posts, and priority customer support. Musk’s announcement of two additional subscription plans reflects his commitment to expanding and enhancing the offerings for X users, ensuring a more personalized and enjoyable experience for all.
One of the new subscription plans is designed to be more budget-friendly, providing a cost-effective alternative to the existing X Premium subscription. Although the exact price has not been disclosed, Musk’s statement suggests that it will be available at a low price.
Despite being more affordable, this subscription tier will include all the premium features provided in the existing X Premium plan. This means users can enjoy features like exclusive emojis and priority customer support without breaking the bank. This is a smart move on Musk’s part, as it opens up premium features to a wider audience.
The second new membership tier is set to disrupt the social media landscape even more. Musk highlighted that it will be slightly more expensive than the existing X Premium subscription but comes with an ad-free experience.
Users who choose this premium plan will no longer have to deal with ads cluttering their timeline and interrupting their scrolling. The move will likely be a significant draw for many users who find ads disruptive to their social media experience.
X’s “Not a Bot” program
In parallel with the announcement of the subscription plan, X is taking measures to combat manipulation, spam and bot activity on its platform. The “Not a Bot” program is being rolled out in select countries, including New Zealand and the Philippines.
The program will charge new unverified users a nominal annual fee of $1, ensuring that X will remain a platform for authentic human interaction. This move is in line with X’s commitment to maintaining the integrity and credibility of its user base.
Meanwhile, the $1 annual membership fee of X’s “Not a Bot” program is a far cry from the pricing structure twitter blue, a premium subscription service available on X. In India, Twitter Blue is priced at Rs 900 per month for both Android and iOS devices, with web access available at Rs 650 per month. Users can also opt for an annual subscription, which costs Rs 6,800 for web access.
X’s “Not a Bot” program strikes a balance between accessibility and security. By keeping membership fees to a minimum, the platform ensures that legitimate users can join without any barriers, while also preventing those who want to exploit the platform for malicious purposes.
