The much hyped one Twitter subscription service Twitter Blue will restart on Monday.

Last month, Twitter first launched the Blue verification for $8 per monthbut the service stopped after the platform was flooded with verified trolls.

The official Twitter account announced the relaunch on Saturday. The company said people could subscribe to the revamped service by paying $8 a month over the web or a higher price from $11 per month through apple inc AAPL iOS.

To avoid the problems Twitter saw when it launched last month, the company says it has taken specific new measures.

Twitter Product Manager Esther Crawford tweeted that the company included a verification step before putting a blue tick.

In addition, people who want to display a blue tick on their profile must register with a phone number after subscribing to the service.

Subscribers can change their handle, display name, and profile photo after receiving verified status, but the company is temporarily removing their blue tick while they reverify their account.

Twitter will also introduce the ability to post longer videos and see fewer ads in feeds. In addition, Blue Verified subscribers can edit their tweets and upload 1080p videos.

The company also mentioned that the second “official” label would soon be replaced with a gold tick for corporations and a gray tick for government and “multilateral” accounts.

“Thank you for your patience while we worked to make Blue better – we’re excited and look forward to sharing more with you soon!” the company tweeted.

Twitter CEO Elon Musk responded to the announcement and said additional features are coming.
