The X (Twitter) add-on

X (Twitter) is the one platform that is not included in the flat price. €4.99 buys 30 X posts, valid for 30 days. Everything else (Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, LinkedIn, Pinterest, YouTube, Threads, Bluesky, Mastodon, Telegram and Google Business Profile) is in the plan.

What it is

Folding X into the base price would mean the people who never touch X paying for the people who do, so it is a separate, one-time purchase instead of a second subscription.

How posts are counted

One credit per tweet that publishes. That is per X account, not per post in your calendar:

• A post going to one X account uses 1 credit.
• The same post going to three X accounts uses 3.
• A post going to X plus Instagram plus LinkedIn uses 1. Only the X half touches the batch.
• A tweet that fails does not consume a credit.

Stacking and expiry

• Batches add together into one balance.
• Credits are spent from the batch that expires first, so nothing is wasted by accident.
• Each batch is valid 30 days from purchase, and buying a new batch extends every credit you still hold to the new expiry. Topping up never races your existing credits against a deadline.
• Credits that reach their expiry unused do not carry over.

Your balance, the number of batches, and the next expiry date all show on the add-on panel. If you drive Schedchie from an AI assistant, the same numbers come back from get_x_addon_status: see connect an AI assistant.

Where to buy it

Go to Dashboard → Settings and use the X (Twitter) add-on panel. The buy button opens a Stripe checkout page with your saved payment method ready, or Apple Pay and Google Pay. VAT is shown before you pay, and credits are live the moment you land back in the dashboard.

You will also meet it at Dashboard → Accounts: choosing the X tile with an empty balance goes to the checkout first, then carries straight on to the X consent screen once the payment is through.

Auto top-up

After your first purchase, the settings panel offers auto top-up: when your balance runs out or is about to expire, Schedchie buys the next batch automatically with the payment method from your latest purchase. It is off by default, switched on and off with one click, and every charge is the same €4.99 batch, and nothing else is ever charged. Every automatic charge is confirmed by email.

Without auto top-up, we email you a few days before your remaining credits expire so nothing disappears unannounced.

When a batch runs out

X targets stop publishing and the account is flagged Add-on required. That flag is about the balance, not the connection: the account stays connected and nothing needs reconnecting.

• Other platforms on the same post publish normally. Only the X half is affected.
• The post shows as Partial with the X account marked, and the reason on it.
• Top up, then retry the post. Buying the batch clears the flag at once.

Keeping it from happening

• Check the balance on the settings panel before scheduling a heavy X week.
• Buy the next batch before the current one empties. They stack, so nothing is lost by being early.

What X supports once it is connected (text, images, video, reply settings, the 280-character limit) is on the X platform page and in the platform limits reference.
