The social media company would bring in $15 million from a payments business in 2023, the NYT reported, that would grow to about $1.3 billion by 2028.
Musk clinched a deal last month to buy Twitter for $44 billion in cash, in a move that will shift control of the social media platform populated by millions of users and global leaders to the Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) Inc chief.
Musk is expected to become Twitter’s temporary CEO after closing the takeover, a person familiar with the matter told Reuters on Thursday, as the billionaire seeks to add investors to the deal.
Subscription revenue from Twitter Blue is expected to generate $69 million in revenue by 2025, the NYT reported.
Musk could not be reached for comment. Twitter did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
The newspaper said Musk anticipates he can increase Twitter’s average revenue per user to $30.22 in 2028 from $24.83 last year.
