Twitter now offers three subscription tiers: Basic, Premium, and Premium+. Let’s take a look at the features included in each tier:
Basic ($3 per month or $32 per year) provides the features of the original Twitter Blue, along with some additional functionalities. This includes the ability to edit and publish longer posts exceeding 280 characters, an undo post option, posting longer videos, a “Top Articles” shortcut, reader mode for threads, background video playback, offline video viewing, a “small reply boost,” SMS two-factor authentication (which is less secure than the authenticator-app-based option available to free users), encrypted direct messages (limited to paid users), and various customization features such as highlighting the best posts on your profile and hiding your likes and subscriptions.
Premium ($8 per month or $84 per year) includes all the features of Basic and reduces the number of ads displayed in the “For You” and “Following” feeds by half. It also provides a “larger reply boost,” access to the Creator Hub for revenue sharing and page subscriptions, the blue checkmark and ID verification badges (if you choose to verify your ID), and the option to hide the blue checkmark. ID verification also comes with “prioritized support from X services.”
Premium+ ($16 per month or $168 per year) offers everything in the Premium tier, along with the removal of all ads.
