# GET /twitter/user/followers

`GET /twitter/user/followers`

Get user followers (with full profile metadata) in reverse chronological order (newest first). Sorted by follow date — most recent followers appear on the first page. Use `cursor` for pagination through the complete followers list.

## Tiered pricing (per follower returned)

> **Credits ↔ USD:** 100,000 credits = $1.00 (1 credit ≈ $0.00001)

| Returned followers per call | Price | USD equivalent |
|---|---|---|
| 200 (max page size) | **1 credit / follower** | **$0.01 / 1k followers** |
| 100 - 199 | 2 credits / follower | $0.02 / 1k followers |
| 20 - 99 | 3 credits / follower | $0.03 / 1k followers |

💡 **At max page size, 100,000 follower profiles cost just $1.00.**

Minimum charge: **60 credits ($0.0006)** per call (20 followers × 3 credits, the smallest page size).

For pure follower-ID collection at scale, see the cheaper [`/twitter/user/followers_ids`](/api-reference/endpoint/get_user_followers_ids) endpoint — no profile metadata, up to 5,000 IDs per call, as low as $0.0045 per 1,000 IDs at the bulk tier.
