Only layers you control operationally: stay eligible, finish KYC, keep Premium active, keep standing clean, and hit any [minimum payout threshold](https://helperx.app/blog/x-creator-revenue-minimum-payout). ## Where to check the official schedule - X (Twitter) **Settings → Monetization** (labels move over time). - Linked **payment partner** dashboard (identity, bank, tax forms, transfer history). - Official help.x.com articles for Creator Revenue Sharing after any product announcement. **Do not plan payroll** from a third-party “July 2026 payout dates” table.
