Twitter, now rebranded to X, started rolling out its ads revenue sharing program globally on July 28. While a few creators started receiving payments via this model earlier this month, this is now being made more widely available in countries including India. Elon Musk, the owner of X, had informed earlier that $5 million would be allocated as the first block of payments for creators.

To be eligible, a creator should have a verified account, and ads shown to verified users in the replies of posts of creators will count. The program aims to help creators "earn a living" on the platform, as per X Help Center.
