Per X, the Premium+ tier provides the "largest reply boost" and eliminates ads from the "For You" and "Following" sections. Subscribers also enjoy revenue-sharing

The second tier, dubbed "Basic," features post editing, longer text and video post capabilities, and a "small reply boost." However, it does not include the blue checkmark or meet the revenue-sharing criteria.

The Premium+ tier is available for $16 per month or $168 per year. It is twice as expensive as Premium, which costs $8 per month and $84 per year.

The rollout of additional subscription levels is intended to help X increase revenue as advertising dollars have reportedly dwindled since Elon Musk assumed control.

Musk's contentious changes have caused major companies to withdraw their ads from the social network. Consequently, X's US ad revenue has dropped each month since Musk's takeover.
