X, which is led by Elon Musk, introduced two new plans on Saturday for its users.
They have a Premium Plus plan that costs $16 per month.
Additionally, they’ve also launched a new ‘Basic’ option at $3 per month to help improve your answers.
The social network announced something called ‘Premium Plus.’ It means no ads for you or from people you follow.
It’s the best way to make your answers better compared to other premium levels or unverified users. You also get access to all the tools creators use.

The platform also introduced a new ‘Basic’ level for $3 per month when you sign up on the website.
This gives you access to the most important premium features.
These new subscription plans are only on the web for now, and they will be available for mobile users later.
In the Basic plan, which doesn’t give you the blue checkmark, subscribers will only get a ‘small boost’ for their answers.
The regular premium plan on X costs $8 per month. CEO Linda Yaccarino mentioned that an average user spends over 32 minutes each day on X.
Price and Features of New Plans
Among the two new plans, one costs Rs 250, and the other costs Rs 1300.
The entry-level basic plan is priced at $3 per month, which is about Rs 250 per month on the web.
This plan shows advertisements. Users get basic features like editing posts, undoing posts, using SMS for extra security, and customization.
However, it doesn’t have creator features or the checkmark.
The second plan costs Rs 1300. If you don’t want to see any ads, you can choose the Premium+ plan, which costs $16 per month, about the same as Rs 1300 per month on the web.
Even though the subscription at Rs 650 per month on the web has all the premium plan features, it has only half the number of ads.
Every day, people spend a lot of time on X, about 7.8 billion minutes.
This is because of the growth in our videos and community products,” Yaccarino mentioned on Thursday.
“Today, most people spend more than 32 minutes each day on X,” as stated in a blog post. They have around 1.5 million new users signing up daily.
Additionally, Community Notes has over 100,000 people from 44 countries contributing, and it’s getting bigger.
They say that over 1,700 companies came back to advertise on X in the last three months.
To keep people using its platform, X Corp has given $20 million (which is more than Rs 166 crore) to creators until now.
