Twitter Blue relaunching after failed previous attempt – National | 24CA News

Twitter is as soon as once more trying to launch its premium service, a month after a earlier try failed.

The social media firm stated Saturday it might let customers purchase subscriptions to Twitter Blue to get a blue checkmark and entry particular options beginning Monday.

The blue checkmark was initially given to firms, celebrities, authorities entities and journalists verified by the platform. After Elon Musk purchased Twitter for $44 billion in October, he launched a service granting blue checks to anybody keen to pay $8 a month. But it was inundated by imposter accounts, together with these impersonating Musk’s companies Tesla and SpaceX, so Twitter suspended the service days after its launch.

The relaunched service will price $8 a month for internet customers and $11 a month for iPhone customers. Twitter says subscribers will see fewer adverts, have the ability to put up longer movies and have their tweets featured extra prominently.
