X Discontinues Revenue Share Programme, Replaces It With New Scheme. Check Eligibility, Payout Details X (formerly Twitter) has officially ended its creator revenue share programme and replaced it with a new original content rewards programme. The change was announced on August 7 through the X Creators handle, marking a significant shift in how creators are compensated on the platform. The decision comes amid concerns over the proliferation of bot accounts engaging in mindless activity, which has undermined the value of user-generated content. The new Original Content Rewards Program is designed to incentivize creators who produce original ideas, expertise, reporting, creativity, and commentary. X emphasized that the initiative reflects the platform’s ongoing evolution, stating that it aims to reward creators who “make X worth opening every day.” Existing members of the revenue share programme will continue to receive payouts until September 7, 2026, with three final payments scheduled for August 14, August 28, and September 11. After this date, new applications for the revenue share programme will no longer be accepted. Creators interested in transitioning to the new rewards programme must meet specific eligibility criteria. To qualify, users must be at least 18 years old, have at least 500 verified followers, and achieve a minimum of 500,000 verified home timeline impressions in the past 90 days (excluding replies). These requirements are intended to ensure that only high-quality, original content is rewarded. Under the new system, creators earn money based on the impressions their content generates. Qualified impressions are defined as unique views from Premium users on the Home Timeline feed, where at least 50% of the post is visible.#creator #x #x_creators #original_content_rewards_program #revenue_share_programme
