To be eligible for creator ads revenue sharing, users need to check all these boxes:

1. X Premium subscriber, previously known as Twitter Blue or Verified Organisation

2. Should have at least 15 million organic impressions on cumulative posts within the last three months

3. Have at least 500 followers

If you meet the eligibility criteria, you will then need to follow these steps:

1. Create a Stripe account that will be used by X to process your payments.

2. You will need to meet the following creator monetisation standard and rules:

• Be at least 18 years old
• Have an active account on X for at least 3 months
• Post at least 25 tweets in the last 30 days

• Verify email address and two-factor authentication
• Maintain clean record by following User Agreement and Content Monetization Standards
• Not a state-affiliated media account
• Have an authentic identity on your profile (no impersonators)

If you follow the above pointers, then you can go ahead and apply for Ads Revenue sharing. All you need to do is log in to your account and go to account settings. Now select the option to opt in for ad revenue sharing. Then click on “Join and set up payouts”, you will be directed to Stripe, where you will need to set up an account where you will receive your payouts.  

Notably, these creators will receive payouts at regular intervals, given that you have earned over $50 or Rs 4,000 approximately.
