Elon Musk Plans Venmo-Like Payments For X

The major part of Elon Musk’s “everything app” plan is to launch payments on the X platform. While details of the plan are not available, documents the company submitted to state regulators for money transmitter licenses reveal Venmo-like features, as per Bloomberg.

A Venmo-like feature will allow users to store money on their X accounts, pay or transfer money to other users or businesses, and buy products and services in physical stores. Musk earlier said the payments feature is anticipated to go live in mid-2024, but details on the launch date are still not clear.

As per the documents, X plans to charge minimal fees for its payment services. The company told regulators that its goal is to offer payments to boost its business through “increased participation and engagement” on X. It plans to get major revenue from merchant fees, banking services like checking accounts.
