Eligibility requirements for Meta Verified businesses
Meta Verified for businesses is slowly being rolled out and isn't available for everyone yet.
If it's available and you meet the eligibility requirements, you can sign your business up for Meta Verified.
Note:
The Meta business account, sometimes called a Business Manager account, is being renamed to business portfolio. This change will appear gradually across Meta technologies.
Meta Verified for businesses is a paid subscription for eligible businesses to stand out with a verified badge that confirms that the business is validated and authentic.
To qualify for this subscription, you need to meet the following eligibility requirements.
