Twitter plans to reduce its dependence on advertising by receiving money from businesses. According to the leaked documents, Twitter plans to charge businesses $1,000 per month in exchange for the gold tick. Brands that do not pay this amount to Twitter on a monthly basis will lose the golden tick. It is not clear when the golden tick will be removed.
According to the report of the Information magazine, Twitter plans to charge $50 a month for adding special badges to the accounts of businesses. A screenshot of an email exchanged between a Twitter product manager, and an anonymous business representative confirms this.
Before redesigning the Blue for Business service and changing its name to Verification for Organizations, Twitter hosted the golden tick. This service allows businesses to add special badges that are a small version of their profile picture to the accounts of their managers and employees in this social network.
Twitter has not yet announced the price of the Verification for Organizations service. Last month, access to this service became possible in a limited way.
