X is phasing out its Revenue Sharing program and replacing it with an Original Content Rewards Program, the platform's Creators account announced Friday. X said it stopped accepting new Revenue Sharing enrollments immediately and will wind the program down entirely after Sept. 7.

Creators currently enrolled will receive three final payouts, with two on the standard schedule in mid- and late August and a final payment around Sept. 11 covering earnings through the cutoff date. Starting Sept. 8, existing Revenue Sharing members can apply for the new program if they meet its eligibility requirements.

The new program ties earnings to qualified impressions from unique, verified Premium subscribers viewing at least half of a post on the Home Timeline. To qualify, creators must be at least 18, live in an eligible country, hold an account in good standing, subscribe to a paid X tier, and have at least 500 verified followers along with 500,000 Home Timeline impressions from verified users over the prior 90 days.

Content that is copied, reuploaded without authorship, generated through automated means, or reposted with only minor edits will not qualify for rewards.
