What the green tick means, what Meta looks for and how Lead Pattern helps you apply for free.
The green tick badge signals that WhatsApp has verified your business identity. It builds trust in every conversation and is especially valuable for B2B, finance and healthcare brands.
Meta grants verification at its discretion. You cannot buy the tick — you apply with business documents, a verified Facebook Business Manager and a consistent public presence.
