How to Get Paid on Twitter in Nigeria (2025) 

You might be missing an easy way to make money. If you are a Nigerian and active on X (Twitter), you can cash out from the platform this 2025.

Many X users make money from tips they get for their tweets or just from their followers. It sounds unreal but it is true and you are wondering what tips are. 

What are Twitter tips?

Remember those jars you see in restaurants on the counter for anyone interested in tipping for a good service? It is the same concept. However, in this case, it’s the cash icon next to your profile.

X’s Tips feature lets your followers send money directly to your account. They do not need to reach out via DMs or through external links. 

It is an easier way for your followers. People can show appreciation or contribute to a cause that you love. 

So, those awkward moments where you had to drop your payment details in comment sections or on your timeline? Yeah, that’s over now.

And the best part? You get to keep every kobo. X charges nothing so you get everything. 

If you notice accounts with the cash icon next to their profile, it indicates their Tips feature is turned on. They are probably already cashing out. 

Now that you know what Tips are, let’s discuss how to set them up on your profile with Paga.

How to set up tips on X (Twitter)

Setting up Tips on your profile is simple and quick:

1. Go to your X profile.
2. Tap Edit Profile and find Tips (it’s off by default).
3. Agree to the General Tipping Policy to allow it.
4. Toggle on the Allow Tips button
5. Select Paga as your tipping platform.
6. Add your paga.me link.

That’s it! You are ready to receive tips directly from your followers. 

But, what is a paga.me link?

justpaga.me is a unique payment link that lets you receive money by sharing it with anyone. You no longer need to type out your full bank account details.

Your $pagatag is the part of the link that shows your name at the end. The link can be customised, so you can choose any name for your $pagatag. 

How to add your paga.me link

To get your paga.me link, follow these quick steps:

1. Open the Paga app.
2. Tap the three horizontal lines in the top left corner.
3. Copy your $pagatag (the part after justpaga.me/) and add it to the payment choice in your X profile.

Now, when followers tap your cash icon, they can send tips directly to your Paga wallet.

Why Paga?
