Twitter is experimenting with paid Spaces, which is the platform's take on Clubhouse. The company will let some iOS users sell Twitter Spaces tickets ranging from US$1 to $999. Twitter will be taking a 3% cut of sales and will increase commission based on total earnings. If the host earns over $50,000 using Twitter's monetization features, like Super Follows, the company will charge a 20% fee. As Gizmodo  pointed out, Apple will also get a 30% cut for in-app purchases since the feature is tested with select iOS users.

The company sees this feature as a means for hosts to hold workshops, meet-and-greets, and more. Now, the question is whether people will want to pay for Twitter Spaces is another question.
