Twitter’s verified checkmark could be free for some organisations

After months of testing, Twitter has introduced the business tier of its subscription service – Twitter Verification for Organisations. Soon, organisations and notable users will be stripped of their checkmark, unless they subscribe to Twitter Blue, which costs $1000 a month for organisations. But, there could be a few organisations that could get a cent percent rebate on the subscription fees, entitling them to the gold checkmark for free.

According to a report by The New York Times, Twitter is reportedly exempting the 500 advertisers who spend the most on its platform and the top 10,000 organisations with the highest number of followers. So, these organisations may not have to pay for the subscription.
