Meta Verified

Meta's paid verification bundle that confirms identity and unlocks extra support tools on Facebook and Instagram.

Definition

Meta Verified is a monthly subscription that requires a government ID check and provides a verification badge across Facebook, Instagram, and Threads (where available). Subscribers receive proactive impersonation monitoring, live chat support for account issues, and a token stipend on eligible platforms.

Why it matters

  • Identity lock: Passing Meta Verified satisfies Facebook's strongest ID requirement, reducing future verification prompts.
  • Faster support: Live chat and dedicated queues speed up resolution of Marketplace, payout, or policy problems.
  • Account security: Meta monitors for impersonation attempts and automatically challenges suspicious clones.

Notes

  1. Meta Verified renews monthly and can be canceled anytime from Accounts Center - Meta Verified.
  2. The badge only applies to the profile that completed verification; business Pages still require separate verification.
  3. You must maintain two-factor authentication and use your real name-aliases and nicknames are declined.
