Prepare your account for the green tick the right way
Meta decides who gets the verification badge. As a Meta Business Partner we set up your official WhatsApp API account, review your profile and submit the request for eligible accounts, with no unrealistic promises.

How we help with WhatsApp business verification
Official API setup
The badge applies to official API accounts, so we start by activating your number on it.
Business verification
We help you complete business verification in Meta Business Manager.
Display name
We check the display name matches your brand and Meta policies.
Notability evidence
We organise the links and sources that show your brand notability.
Account security
Two-step verification and access settings.
Submit and follow up
We submit for eligible accounts and explain the decision and next steps.
Account quality
Advice to keep message quality high and reports low.
Trust comes from the customer experience
Even without a badge, an official API account under your name, with fast replies from a full team on one number, a bot and approved templates, builds trust from the first message.
- Unlimited agents on one number
- Company name, logo and description
- Interactive buttons, lists and catalogue
- The WhatsApp green tick (verification badge) is granted by Meta alone to eligible accounts on the official API.
- Verification usually depends on a verified business, a matching display name and brand notability in public, unpaid sources.
- As a Meta Business Partner, Etisalna prepares your account, reviews your profile and submits the request, without guaranteeing the outcome.
What is the green tick?
It is a badge next to your business name showing Meta has confirmed the account represents the brand. Its look and colour change with Meta updates (recently it appears blue), but many still search for "green tick". Read our step-by-step green tick guide.
Who decides?
Only Meta. No partner can grant or guarantee the badge, and the criteria may change. What we do: activate your number on the official WhatsApp API, help you complete business verification in Meta Business Manager, review your display name and profile, organise notability sources, and submit and follow up for eligible accounts.
What Meta usually looks at
- An official API account.
- Verified business details.
- A display name matching the known brand.
- Notability: coverage in independent, unpaid public sources. Paid ads and self-published content usually do not count, so newer brands may not qualify yet.
- Account security such as two-step verification.
Common mistakes and a checklist
Weak requests often have a generic display name, unverified business details, paid or sponsored links instead of independent sources, mismatched names or websites, or low account quality from unsolicited marketing. Before applying, have an official website with clear contact details, company data matching your commercial registration, a clear logo and description, independent coverage if available, and two-step verification enabled. To fight impersonation, publish your official WhatsApp number on your website and channels and remind customers you never ask for codes or card details on WhatsApp.
Do you really need it?
The official API works fully without the badge: unlimited agents on one number in the shared inbox, auto-assignment, approved templates, interactive messages, a catalogue and a chatbot. Trust comes mostly from fast, good service. Keep quality high: message only opted-in customers, pace campaigns sensibly and watch reports and blocks.
