Apple’s 30% App Store cut is about to become deeply unpopular among the influencer / journalist / celebrity set, not just developers and corporate types. https://t.co/odcIXq44cZ

Happy that Twitter is partnering with Stripe to handle payments, as Stripe handles the logistics of integrating with the local financial infra in parts of the world, making it easier for Twitter to roll it out globally

now Stripe might need to work on supporting Africa a bit https://t.co/tR3hyCxgJG pic.twitter.com/wXX3Pr8v9k

For Ticketed Spaces (1,000 followers required), Twitter plans to take a 20% cut, *after* Apple's and Google's app store taxes.

If the numbers hold, this means for a $10 ticket, each party gets:

- Apple/Google: $3.00
- Twitter: $1.40
- Space host: $5.60https://t.co/3Cvh8d5yRi

Imagine stand up sets in @TwitterSpaces, concerts in @TwitterSpaces, fan club chats for charity in @TwitterSpaces. Ticketed spaces have the potential to a real $$$ revenue stream for partners and public figures on here. https://t.co/PPcUbAfbwU

This could very well be video format soon. Voila ! Twitter would have premium live video platform. ?
Once successful, expect Facebook to copy and release clone soon. https://t.co/XcJrLJkPKN

So Twitter will take 20% of the remainder after Apple/Google take their 30%

Imagine that Twitter will take the same or similar cut with Super Follows once that product is live https://t.co/R9u1Dle93N

At some point creators might start to wonder who *they're* getting the most value out of for the cuts they take: Apple/Google or Twitter? The argument that Apple/Google should take 30% from creators is slim to say the least. https://t.co/yrtsJzQRNJ

A creator sells a Ticketed Space for $5.

The creator, who people are willing to pay for, gets $2.80.

Twitter, who facilitated the connection and created the product, gets $0.70.

Apple/Google, who leverage OS API control into a tax on all activity, do nothing and get $1.50. https://t.co/2GRHYrSM8Q

A $5 cover fee for your Twitter Spaces would put $1.50 in Apple's coffers, $0.70 goes to Twitter, and you pocket $2.80. Before taxes. https://t.co/hyICkhc4xE

Twitter’s product execution continues to impress with the preview of ticketed spaces.

Creators are going to be stunned when they realize Apple gets a 30% cut then Twitter gets 20%. So you get only 50% and have to pay taxes on that.

Apple’s, the new IRS.https://t.co/Suo2SVExCS
