    Meta’s Blue Checkmark Verified Program Is Now Available…Sort Of

    Meta is launching its Verified program, adopting a feature that Twitter has long been known for.

    Verified badges, seen as little blue checkmarks, give users a measure of confidence that a person is who they say they are. Twitter has had the feature for years, although it has undergone some changes under Elon Musk’s leadership.

    Meta is now rolling out its own verification system, giving users the option to sign up on a waitlist to receive their Verified badge.

    Get started with the verification process. Activate your Meta Verified subscription for $14.99 USD/month (iOS/Android) or $11.99 USD/month on the web (Facebook only). It is currently available in the United States, Australia and New Zealand for people 18 years or older and is not yet available in all places or for businesses.

    Meta Is Testing ‘Meta Verified’ Service

    Meta is taking on Twitter Blue, testing a “Meta Verified” service that would allow content creators to distinguish themselves.

    The company, and CEO Mark Zuckerberg, made the announcement Sunday:

    To help up-and-coming creators grow their presence and build community faster, today Mark Zuckerberg announced that we’ll begin testing a new offering called Meta Verified, a subscription bundle on Instagram and Facebook that includes a verified badge that authenticates your account with government ID, proactive account protection, access to account support, and increased visibility and reach. We’re starting with a gradual test in Australia and New Zealand later this week to learn what’s most valuable, and we hope to bring Meta Verified to the rest of the world soon.

    The new service will give creators a verified badge; better protection against impersonation; better reach and visibility; live support; and exclusive features to help verified creators reach their audience.

    The price starts at $11.99, with a $3 extra charge to subscribe on iOS or Android:

    Meta Verified is available for direct purchase on Instagram or Facebook in Australia and New Zealand starting later this week. People can purchase a monthly subscription for (USD) 11.99 on the web and (USD) 14.99 on iOS and Android.
