Elon Musk Wants Twitter Users To Pay $20 A Month To Keep Their Blue Tick Verification Badge Or Lose It

Only a few days after taking over as Twitter’s CEO, Elon Musk is apparently working on some significant improvements. The Twitter Blue membership and even the verification procedure, which awards verified accounts with a “Blue tick,” are expected to undergo modifications.

According to reports, the Twitter Blue membership will be connected to it, and Musk also has big price increases planned for the subscriptions.

The new Twitter Blue membership will cost customers $19.99, according to a report by The Verge. Additionally, Twitter accounts that already have the blue tick will need to abide by this new system and pay for it.

Verified users will have a total of 90 days to switch to Twitter Blue before they lose their checkmark. Employees of Twitter have also been told to resign or move quickly with this new membership plan. According to the article, a deadline of November 7 has been set for the staff.

Twitter Blue, a paid monthly opt-in membership that grants exclusive access to premium services, was introduced last year. This, according to Twitter, will allow you to personalise your Twitter experience. In the US, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand, the subscription service is now available.

It will be interesting to watch how Musk implements both a worldwide rollout and a complete overhaul of the payment system. Twitter Blue may be bought in-app on iOS and Android in the territories that are eligible.
