Twitter to launch Super Follows tool for users with 10K followers

Twitter is set to soon launch the Super Follows feature that will enable some users with at least 10,000 followers to charge for providing exclusive additional content like extra tweets, joining a community group or receiving a newsletter.

Twitter announced earlier this year it was working on a Patreon-like service, as the micro-blogging platform aims to drive new revenue streams.

Twitter showed a mock-up screenshot during a virtual event with investors, where a user charges $4.99 per month for exclusive additional content.

App researcher Jane Manchun Wong first tweeted screenshots of the new Super Follows feature on Sunday.
