To help, we’ve put together a handy guide about how to get verified on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook – although, there’s no guarantee your page will get that blue tick!

Instagram verification blue badge

To request a verified badge on Instagram, firstly, you need to have a Business Account, indicating that you’re a public figure, celebrity or brand.

You also need to make sure your profile is public and complete. This means you need to have a bio, profile photo and at least one post.

Instagram explained: “We look at a number of factors when evaluating Instagram accounts to determine if they’re in the public interest and meet our verification criteria.”

Once you’ve set up a Business Profile, you can request verification using the following steps:

1. Make sure you’re logged in to the account you’re requesting a verified badge for.

2. Go to your profile and tap the three horizontal lines in the top right corner of the screen

3. Tap Settings, then Account, then Request Verification

4. Enter your full name, and choose which Category you fit into (News/Media, Sports, Government/Politics, Music, Fashion, Entertainment, Blogger/Influence, Business/Brand/Organisation, or Other)

5. Attach a photo of your ID. This includes a driver’s license, passport or national ID card, or official business documents

6. Click Send

Instagram added: “Once we review your request, you’ll receive a notification letting you know if your account has been verified or not.”

If your request is denied, you can submit a new request after 30 days.

Twitter verification blue badge

On Twitter, an account may be verified if Twitter decides it’s of public interest.

Twitter explained: “Typically this includes accounts maintained by users in music, acting, fashion, government, politics, religion, journalism, media, sports, business, and other key interest areas.

Sadly, Twitter’s verification process is currently on hold, and the platform isn’t accepting any new requests.

It remains unclear when the process will be back up and running

Facebook verification blue badge
