MOSCOW - Twitter will introduce an option, allowing media outlets to charge users for paywalled content on a per article basis if they want to read an occasional article, CEO of the social media platform Elon Musk said on Saturday.

"Rolling out next month, this platform will allow media publishers to charge users on a per article basis with one click. This enables users who would not sign up for a monthly subscription to pay a higher per article price for when they want to read an occasional article," Musk tweeted, reported Sputnik.

A new function should be "a major win-win" for both media outlets and users, the US entrepreneur added.

Earlier in the day, the social media platform announced an option to monetise accounts, which will allow all its users to earn money from their posts. - BERNAMA-SPUTNIK
