Twitter to offer ad revenue share to select content creators

Twitter said on Thursday that select content creators on the social media platform will be eligible to get a part of the advertising revenue the company earns.

The content creators will get a share of revenue from ads displayed in their replies, Twitter said, adding that to be eligible the creators should be verified users with at least 5 million impressions on their posts in each of the last 3 months and have a Stripe payment account.

Twitter is trying to draw more content creators to the platform. Earlier this year, the company allowed users to offer paid subscription to their content on the platform.

Elon Musk, the billionaire who bought Twitter last October, has previously said the company will pass on the entire subscription revenue to creators in the first year excluding payment gateway charges.

Google rolls out passkeys across its services

Panasonic's battery  Business must focus on boosting productivity , Group CEO Yuki Kusumi told Reuters, signalling the Tesla supplier may hold off building a third battery plant in North America as demand for electric vehicles cools. The battery unit, Panasonic Energy, had previously said, it aimed to decide on building the factory by the end of March. But Panasonic Holdings CEO Yuki Kusumi said in an interview that a decision would be made only "when the timing is right". "I keep telling people we need to think about thoroughly raising productivity before setting up a third location," he said on Friday at the company's Tokyo office.
