How to get a verified account on WhatsApp Business
Table of contents:
WhatsApp Business has been a reality for just a few weeks, the application dedicated to businesses and companies has given a lot to talk about in recent months, and it seems that it has not disappointed any user. The new application of the great instant messaging service comes with many features, but little by little more new features are being added in order to get the most out of the application. One of the most talked about features while this app was still in development was profile verificationIn this way, we could know if a company or business is authentic and official. Verification is already coming to the new WhatsApp Business service and we'll tell you how to get it.
First of all, WhatsApp verification will serve to authenticate those companies or real businesses, which are authentic. In this way, we will be able to know that the business is official, and we can contact them without problems. Of course, WhatsApp will not verify any fake profiles or those who send abusive content. But... How do you verify a profile? According to the WaBetainfo website, WhatsApp does not provide any form, questionnaire or process to verify an account. They carry out the process by hand, investigating all WhatsApp Business users.
WhatsApp Business will allow you to change the name once verified, but…
If WhatsApp considers that a profile can be verified (in most cases belonging to companies or businesses), will ask the user or representative for documentation to be able to carry out this verification For example, invoices with the fiscal address etc. Finally, WaBetainfo assures that it is possible to change the name of a verified account in WhatsApp for business, but we will lose the verification badge until they investigate again.
We don't know if in the future the application will activate a form to speed up the verification process in WhatsApp Business. At the moment, if you are only a registered user it is very unlikely that they will verify it. If your account is a business or company account, you may get verified, but it may take a while.
