Social media platform X, formerly known as Twitter, announced on Tuesday that it will test a new subscription model. Under this model, users will be charged a $1 annual fee for basic features. The new subscription, called “Not A Bot,” will require users to pay for likes, reposts, quoting other accounts’ posts, and bookmarking posts on the web version of the platform.

The purpose of this new subscription model is to combat bots and spammers. X stated that the fee will vary from country to country based on the exchange rate. Initially, the new subscription method will only be available to users in New Zealand and the Philippines.

Existing users will not be affected by this test, but new users who choose not to subscribe will only be able to view and read posts, watch videos, and follow accounts. Bots have been a contentious issue for Elon Musk, who acquired the company last year. In July, X implemented a limit on viewing tweets to ensure the authenticity of its user base.

Earlier this month, it was reported that X CEO Linda Yaccarino met with X’s lenders to discuss the company’s plans to test three tiers of its subscription service based on the number of ads shown to the user.
