To get paid as a creator on Twitter, you need to have subscribed to Twitter Blue for at least three months. You need to have received 5 million tweet impressions for at least three months, which rules out an extraordinary amount of recent Twitter Blue users who may only have a few hundred or few thousand followers who will not hit that mark.
Additionally, it must have 25 tweets in the previous 30 days and at least 500 followers. Until they reach $50,000 in income, Twitter will let content creators keep up to 92% of their earnings.
