Meta adds: “This new feature is primarily aimed at increasing the authenticity and security of our services.” In addition to these benefits and this visible badge, users will benefit from a wider exposure of their posts on Instagram and Facebook.

IN son In a press release, the Meta adds that “in the long term, the goal is to create a subscription offering that benefits everyone, including creators, businesses and our community at large.” And the firm continues: “As part of this vision, we’re evolving the value of the verified badge so we can expand access to verification and allow more people to be confident that the accounts they’re following are authentic.” Security checks will be carried out at all stages of the verification process, including after the application has been verified.
