The Facebook verification badge is one of the ‘marks of credibility’ for users of this social media platform. It not only affirms the authenticity of the account but also highlights the prominence of Facebook users on social media. Almost every user of this platform longs to have this badge next to their account name.
Not long ago, Twitter allowed users to buy the verification badge. Recently, Facebook has done the same. On his page, Mark Zuckerberg stated: “We will begin rolling out Meta Verified – a service that allows you to verify your account with identification and receive a verification badge. At the same time, it will protect your account from impersonation and provide direct access to customer support.
This new feature is intended to enhance authenticity and security across our services. Meta Verified starts at a price of $11.99/month on the web platform and $14.99/month on iOS. We will launch in Australia and New Zealand this week and will soon be available in many other countries.”
It can be seen that this is a relatively wise move by Meta as they are aware of how much global users cherish this ‘mark of power’. With prices ranging from about 285,000 VND to nearly 360,000 VND, many Facebook users are sure to decide to obtain this verification badge when it is rolled out by Meta in the Vietnamese market.
