Request a Verified Badge for your Business on Facebook

With more than one billion of active users, Facebook is the most popular social media platform in world. Businesses can create their business page to share information, news, pictures, and videos whilst engaging with their audience.

Due to the rise in duplicate pages and profiles, Facebook has introduced a new badge called “verified” to help users know that they are authentic.

What is a Facebook Verified Page?

To verify your Page:

  1. Click Settings at the top of your Page
  2. From General, click Page Verification
  3. Click Verify this Page, then click Get Started
  4. Enter a publicly listed phone number for your business, your country and language
  5. Click Call Me Now to allow Facebook to call you with a verification code
  6. Enter the 4-digit verification code and click Continue
