How Mexicans earn money on Twitter

1. Ad Rrevenue sharing

X (formerly Twitter) pays eligible creators a share of ad revenue from posts that appear in users’ timelines. If your tweets consistently rack up impressions and engagement, you can earn money based on the ads shown between replies. All you need is a verified account and strong content.

2. Brand partnerships

Mexican creators collaborate with brands for sponsored tweets or campaigns. Companies are willing to pay for creators who have niche audiences and high engagement. Whether you're in tech, fashion, or comedy, brands value your influence and will pay for exposure through authentic, well-placed promotional content.

3. Affiliate marketing

By sharing affiliate links in your tweets, you can earn a commission each time a follower makes a purchase. This works well for creators in lifestyle, tech, or product review spaces. When done right, affiliate marketing turns your X content into a passive income stream.

4. Selling digital products

Creators in Mexico use X to promote and sell digital products like ebooks, courses, designs, or consulting services. With the right call-to-action and audience trust, your followers become customers. Twitter serves as a direct sales channel for creators with something valuable to offer.

Challenges with Mexican banks for earning from Twitter

1. Limited support for creator payments

Most traditional Mexican banks aren’t equipped to handle payouts from platforms like X. This makes it difficult for creators to directly link their bank accounts or receive income without going through complex processes or third-party services.

2. High currency conversion fees

When earnings are sent in USD or other foreign currencies, Mexican banks often charge high conversion fees. These hidden costs reduce the actual income creators receive, making monetisation on X less rewarding than it should be.

3. Delayed payment processing

International transfers to Mexican bank accounts can take several days to reflect. For creators who rely on fast cash flow, this delay disrupts their ability to reinvest earnings into their content or cover personal expenses on time.
