“When you change one thing, you have the ability to change EVERYTHING.”

WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO GET META VERIFIED?

Meta is the parent company of Facebook and Instagram, two of the top social media outlets. Maybe you’ve noticed the infamous blue check on profiles that show proof that a profile is the real deal. From celebrities to companies, influencers and to top brands, that little blue check is a big deal. In the past, most profiles either had to wait and wait for enough followers to get verified or had to have content that proved who they really were. It took some profiles days, weeks or even longer to get the verification. This made it really hard for small businesses to get the traction needed on social media because maybe their following wasn’t big enough yet. But not anymore! Meta has changed the game for small businesses. McIvor Marketing is an expert in all things social media. We are Meta certified so that we can help you with the ins and outs of boosting your business and help you get verified across both platforms.

WHAT IS A PAID META SUBSCRIPTION?

Paying for a meta subscription can sound confusing and honestly, may seem not necessary. However, paying for a meta subscription actually helps your brand reach a wider and more concrete audience. Rather than waiting on enough followers or creating enough content with traction to get verified, now, you can pay to get verified, launching the social following to help your business grow. Your audience can rest knowing that they are following the real you and follow a profile which they can trust. After all, isn’t that what every business needs to thrive? Establishing trust between a business and customer creates customer retention, but also expands your brand as customers send in reviews and make recommendations.

WHAT ARE YOU ACTUALLY PAYINNG FOR WITH A META SUBSCRIPTION?

A paid Meta subscription is more than just the little blue check. With your subscription you’ll get proof that your profile is legitimate, special stickers on your Facebook and Instagram for stories and reels, account protection from impersonation, and account support from a real person that can help target any issues you might be experiencing. You’ve worked hard to start your business, so brand protection and promotion are important.

HOW TO GET STARTED WITH A META SUBSRIPTION

Getting a Meta subscription involves a few easy steps:

STEP 1:

Select what profile you want to have a Meta subscription for

STEP 2:

Meta will let you know if that profile is available for a paid subscription

STEP 3:

Set up a payment method

STEP 4:

Complete the verification process by sending in a picture of a government ID and a selfie video

STEP 5:

Wait to be verified

WHAT ELSE DO I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE META SUBSCRIPTION?

Getting verified can take as little as 48 hours with Meta’s two-factor authentication process. If there is trouble verifying your profile, Meta will refund your money. Once you or your business is verified, any major changes to the profile, such as username, profile picture, or birthdate, must go through the Meta Verified subscription process again.

Since this is a new feature to the Meta platforms, there are a few restrictions:

PRICES FOR META VERIFIED

iOS and Android

$14.99/month

Web (Facebook only)

$11.99/month
