Meta Verified is a subscription bundle for creators on Instagram and Facebook that includes account verification, including the blue check badge, proactive account protection, access to direct account support, and more. To use Meta Verified, creators must subscribe on each app separately. The subscription costs $14.99/month when signing up on iOS and Android, or $11.99/month by signing up through the web, which is only available for Facebook. To apply for Meta Verified, users must provide a government-issued ID and a selfie video to confirm their identity. The ID must match the profile name and photo of the Instagram or Facebook account being applied for. Once a profile is verified, the username or date of birth on the profile cannot be changed without going through the Meta Verified subscription and verification application process again. Meta Verified is generally available in most regions for individuals aged 18 or over in Australia, New Zealand, and the United States. Meta Verified is expanding to businesses soon, with a subscription bundle that includes business authentication with a verified badge, impersonation protection, access to account support, and more. Monthly subscriptions start at $21.99 USD/month per Facebook page or Instagram account, or $34.99 USD/month for both.
