Mashable: Over the past few days, Twitter sent emails to subscribers informing them of this pricing adjustment.

The monthly cost of Twitter Blue, its subscription service, will rise from $2.99 to $4.99. Existing subscribers will start paying extra in October. The increased rate is now required of new users.

In addition to the United States, the price increase also applies to Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. The new prices are 6.99 AUD (formerly 4.49 AUD), 6.49 CAD (previously 3.49 CAD), and 6.49 NZD, respectively (previously 4.49 NZD).

The ability to change your profile picture to an NFT, access to the most popular articles shared by your network, and the ability to reverse send allow subscribers to enjoy a variety of advantages. Ad-free articles inside the Twitter Blue Publisher network are also available.

Over the past few days, Twitter sent emails to subscribers informing them of this pricing adjustment. The statement added, "This move enables us continue to build some of the services you've been requesting, improve upon the existing ones you already love, and retain our objective of supporting journalism."

Many users attacked Twitter's decision, claiming that the existing collection of capabilities is insufficient to warrant the cost; perhaps an edit button might persuade them otherwise.

Following an expansion to the United States and New Zealand in November of last year, the business initially introduced Twitter Blue in Canada and Australia in June. Twitter has not provided any information regarding the number of users who have paid for this service, and it does not separately disclose subscription revenue in its quarterly reports. As reported by TechCrunch, according to a report from analytics company SensorTower, Twitter Blue is now losing ground to Snapchat+, which debuted on June 29, 2022.
