Trump Media & Technology Group is discussing the possibility of charging traders and investment firms on Wall Street up to $100,000 per month for the fastest access to U.S. President Donald Trump's posts on the Truth Social network. This was reported by Reuters, citing informed sources, writes UNN.

According to the agency, the company is also offering a tariff of $60,000 per month for clients who sign a three-year contract. On Thursday, Trump Media introduced a paid service, Truth API, which will provide banks and trading companies with the fastest access to posts from the ten most influential accounts on Truth Social, but did not disclose official prices.
The new service has already drawn criticism
The initiative is Trump Media's first step into the data licensing field and has already drawn criticism from Democrats. Senator Ron Wyden stated that the service will bring financial benefits to the Trump family and "make Wall Street traders rich." The company has not yet commented on these remarks.
Reuters notes that Trump's posts often influence financial markets. For example, in April 2025, U.S. stock indices surged sharply after his announcement about suspending part of the new tariffs. For companies engaged in high-frequency trading, even a few milliseconds of advantage can yield significant profits.
