What does the Meta Verified subscription offer?
Verified and Proud
One of the most coveted benefits of Meta Verified is the verified badge – a blue checkmark that confirms the authenticity of your account. To get verified, you’ll need to go through a verification process that uses a government ID to securely establish your account’s authenticity.
Proactive Protection

When it comes to account support, Meta Verified has got you covered. With direct account support, you can get help from a support executive on any issues that bother you. Plus, you’ll get exclusive features like stickers for Facebook and Instagram Stories and Facebook Reels and 100 Stars a month on Facebook so you can show your support for other creators.
Increased Visibility
With Meta Verified, you’ll also enjoy increased visibility on Facebook and Instagram. This means that you’ll be more prominent in certain parts of the platforms, such as comments, searches, and recommendations. It will help you expand your reach and get your content in front of more people than ever.
