Elon Musk announces $1 tipping on X in US: How the new X Money payment option will work
Elon Musk says X will introduce a feature allowing users to send $1 to another person by long-pressing the Like button. The move could simplify creator tipping as X expands its financial services through X Money.
Elon Musk announced a new feature on X that will enable users to send $1 to another user through a $1 tipping option. This feature, set to launch in the US, will allow users to long-press the Like button on a post to send money via X Money. The move aims to make tipping creators a simpler process without needing to navigate separate payment platforms.
However, specifics such as rollout timing and eligibility requirements have not been disclosed. X Money, already operational in the US, provides peer-to-peer transfers, deposit accounts, and a Visa debit card. The $1 tipping feature could complement X Money's existing services and potentially encourage more small financial transactions within the platform.
