Nigerian 'X' Content Creators Celebrate Twitter Ads' Revenue

Twitter, now known as ‘X’, has brought a lot of joy to Nigerian content creators. They are now getting paid for displaying ads in their posts. This payment program began in the US and has now expanded worldwide.

Individuals who create content on Twitter and have a substantial number of followers are now receiving money for their efforts. To qualify for payment, they need to have a minimum of 500 followers and set up a special account called Stripe. Additionally, their posts must be viewed many times.

However, not everyone is eligible to receive payments. There are specific rules to follow. Creators must have high-quality content that meets certain standards like having not less than 500 followers and 5,000,000 views on their posts every 3months. They also need to pass a review to ensure their content is appropriate and valuable. Also, users need to be verified or have a subscription to Twitter Blue to get paid.

While content creators are excited about the payments, ‘X’ has mentioned that they have the right to end the payment program. This could happen if there are business reasons or legal issues. This serves as a reminder that the program’s future could change.

In a show of evidence and appreciation, Nigerian creators are sharing screenshots of the money they’ve received.
