It looks like Mark Zuckerberg took one look at Elon Musk’s Twitter Blue and decided he’d like a piece of the pie. Meta will launch a similar subscription verification service for Facebook and Instagram called Meta Verified.
“This week we start implementing Meta Verified” Zuckerberg said. “A subscription service that lets you verify your account with government ID, get a blue badge, get extra phishing protection against accounts pretending to be you, and have direct access to customer support.”
The service starts at $11.99 per month on web or $14.99 per month on iOS, and will be rolling out in New Zealand Australia for now, with plans to expand soon. Reaction to the service is somewhat mixed under Zuckerberg’s post, with some liking the idea of direct access to customer support, while others believe that any features Zuckerberg plans to implement should be part of the service. basic.
What do you think? Would you like to subscribe to Meta Verified?
