X Money payment platform launches in the US
X Money, the payment platform that forms a central component of Elon Musk’s vision to transform X into an “everything app,” began rolling out to users today, according to reports from 9to5Mac and The Verge. The service introduces a digital wallet that supports peer‑to‑peer transfers comparable to those offered by Venom, and it includes a metal Visa card that can be personalized with an X username. Additional functionality such as Apple Wallet integration and free money transfers on the X network is also part of the launch.
The offering is tiered: Premium Plus subscribers are eligible for an advertised “up to 6 percent” annual percentage yield on balances, while standard Premium members must meet a deposit threshold to qualify for the same rate. Previously confined to an invite‑only beta, X Money is now open to a broader audience, signaling Musk’s push to expand the platform’s financial services as part of the broader X ecosystem.
