Elon Musk’s social network X has announced that creator payouts in the United States will now be processed exclusively through its proprietary X Money service, replacing Stripe. The transition covers both subscription earnings and original content rewards, introducing instant payouts without waiting periods or minimum threshold requirements.
This update aligns with the broader vision of transforming X into an all-encompassing application. While the immediate transfer of funds offers financial flexibility, the mandatory shift removes alternative payout choices for American creators, whereas international users remain unaffected on the previous Stripe infrastructure.
- US creator payouts move from Stripe to the X Money platform.
- Transactions become instant without billing cycles or minimum thresholds.
- The new payment method is mandatory for creators based in the US.
- International creators outside the United States remain on Stripe.
