The subscription will cost $8/month on the web but iOS users will have to pay a premium price of $11/month to get access to subscriber-only features, including the blue checkmark.

Moreover, the company said that the “official” label will be replaced with a gold checkmark for businesses, and later in the week a grey checkmark for government and multilateral accounts.
The subscribers will be able to change their handle, display name, or profile photo, but if they do they’ll temporarily lose the blue checkmark until their account is reviewed again, it added.
Twitter had initially launched the subscription service early in November. However, it was soon paused as users started using it to impersonate brands and famous people.
The service was scheduled be launched again on November 29 but later it was pushed back, with the service now set to resume today.
