What is Twitter Blue?
Twitter Blue is a subscription service that offers a blue tick or verified account status to users who pay a monthly or annual fee. This paid subscription also provides additional features to verified accounts. Elon Musk announced this fee shortly after taking over Twitter.
Previously, Twitter, one of the most preferred social media channels by middle age users, used the blue mark to indicate genuine, active, and noteworthy accounts of public interest verified by the platform. Now, the blue tick can indicate either an account meeting the previous verification criteria or an active Twitter Blue subscription account.
How much does it cost in Romania?
The cost of a Twitter Blue subscription in Romania varies depending on the device used:
- The web version costs 37 lei per month or 390 lei per year (avg of 32.5 lei/month).
- The iOS & Android versions cost 51 lei per month or 530 lei per year (avg 44 lei per/month).
By subscribing to Twitter Blue, users can enjoy several benefits, such as getting a blue “verified” checkmark, ranking their replies higher, uploading videos of up to 60 minutes, and more. Moreover, they can undo and edit their tweets, personalize the app icons, themes, and navigation, save tweets in bookmarks, and more. A phone number is required to sign up for this service, and Twitter will verify the account to ensure it’s genuine and not deceptive or bogus.
