Facebook and Instagram are getting paid verification badges, just like Twitter

If Twitter can do it, why not Facebook?

As Twitter continues its frankly bizarre campaign to attract subscribers to its Twitter Blue service, Mark Zuckerberg has announced that Meta is launching a similar subscription verification service of its own for Facebook and Instagram, called Meta Verified.

"Some of the top requests we get from creators are for broader access to verification and account support, in addition to more features to increase visibility and reach," Meta said."Since last year, we’ve been thinking about how to unlock access to these features through a paid offering.", confirming you’re the real you and that your account has been authenticated with a government ID.

There are a number of eligibility requirements if you want to join the club. You have to be at least 18 years old and"meet minimum activity requirements, such as prior posting history" in order to sign up for Meta Verified. You'll also have to use your real name on your profile, and once you've been verified you cannot change your profile or user name, date of birth, or profile photo without going through the verification process again.
