Trump Media pitched $100,000 monthly fee for fastest feed of US president's posts: Report

The paid data feed could give traders milliseconds of advance access to posts from Truth Social’s top accounts, including the president’s, for up to $100,000 a month.

  • On Thursday, July 16, Trump Media & Technology Group unveiled "Truth API," a paid data feed providing trading firms and banks "the fastest" access to posts on Truth Social.
  • The Financial Times reported on July 17 that TMTG has discussed charging investors as much as $100,000 a month for premium access, though Reuters could not independently verify the report.
  • A company spokesperson said the product delivers content from the 10 most influential accounts faster than standard push notifications, while The Donald J. Trump Revocable Trust holds about 41 per cent of TMTG stock.
  • Shares of TMTG pared most losses following the report, though the stock has fallen about 27 per cent this year amid competition from larger social media firms on Wall Street.
  • Trump previously used Truth Social to influence markets, such as on April 9, 2025, when he announced a 90 days pause on new tariffs, causing Wall Street indexes to turn sharply higher.
