Payouts are now instant with no minimum threshold (previously $30 minimum, biweekly), but creators have no alternative payout method. X is also retiring its Creator Revenue Sharing Program on September 7, pushing creators into the Original Content Rewards Program instead. Why: If you monetize content on X, you must now onboard X Money (accounts held at Cross River Bank) to receive payouts—there is no opt-out. This is a platform lock-in move worth watching if you depend on X for audience revenue, but it has no direct impact on builders outside the X creator economy. payments platform-lock-in creator-economy
