Introduction<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

You have seen your favorite celebrities on social media with verification ticks, that\u2019s how you distinguish actual accounts from fake ones. Similarly, WhatsApp provides a green tick verification to official businesses so customers don\u2019t engage with fake businesses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is WhatsApp green tick?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It appears next to your WhatsApp number and confirms that it is an authentic and notable business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WhatsApp green tick is a badge that verifies that you have an official business account & your customers can trust your brand & engage in conversations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the different types of WhatsApp Business Accounts?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

There are two types of Business Accounts on WhatsApp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Business Account<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whenever you start using the WhatsApp business App or WhatsApp API, it automatically makes a Business account. This is mainly to show a customer that they are engaging with a business and not an individual. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A customer will see the registered number of the business and not the business name unless they have saved it as a contact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Official Business Account<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The official Business account is the one with the Green tick, it ensures the customers that they are engaging with a legitimate business that has been verified by WhatsApp. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

An official business account will also display the name of the business, even if the customer hasn\u2019t saved the name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What are the benefits of the WhatsApp verified tick?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Although it doesn\u2019t give you access to any additional information or features, the green tick on WhatsApp will help you instill trust amongst customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

  1. Customers directly see your brand name and not just a registered number.<\/li>
  2. It builds authenticity and trust.<\/li>
  3. It helps increase your read-rates, increasing the ROI on your messaging costs.<\/li>
  4. It builds on and improves the overall branding of your business.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    But you ought to know, that the process is a little difficult and lengthy. You also have to get the WhatsApp API to apply for the verification. But all of it is free and in the long run, it does a lot for your brand image. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

    How to get green tick on WhatsApp?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    Step 2: Increase engagement<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Increasing engagement and showing higher traffic is a good way to increase your chances of getting verified. This helps WhatsApp to see you\u2019re a legitimate business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
