Elon Musk Says X Money Will Enter Limited External Beta Within Two Months

The rollout will start with fiat payments via Visa to support Musk’s push to make X a single app for daily life.

Overview

  • Musk said X Money has finished an internal closed beta and will expand to a limited external beta in the next one to two months before a broader release.
  • Positioned as the platform’s central hub for transactions, the service is built to handle peer‑to‑peer transfers and other in‑app payments.
  • The initial implementation will prioritize fiat currency through X’s partnership with Visa, following earlier tests of digital wallets and person‑to‑person payments in 2025.
  • Details on cryptocurrency support have not been disclosed, though prior leadership signaled investment and trading features could be added later.
  • Musk delivered the update during xAI’s All Hands presentation, where he also cited about 1 billion installs and roughly 600 million monthly active users for X and pointed to recent XChat encrypted messaging features.
