WhatsApp Now Verifies Business Account With Green Badge

WhatsApp has introduced a new feature for verified business accounts. This feature makes it easier for consumers and businesses to communicate with each other. A major difference noticed is the green badge with a white tick which helps to didtinguish them from regular accounts.

A yellow chat bubble also appears inside conversations between regular and verified accounts, to confirm you’re talking to a business firm.

“This chat is with a verified business account,” reads the message inside the bubble, as spotted by WABetaInfo . “Tap for more info.”

If a business account in WhatsApp is unverified, the green badge will be missing and a message is being displayed so as to notify you.

WhatsApp also emphasized as quoted below

"If you already have a business's phone number saved in your address book, the name you will see is the name you have saved in your address book,"

“If you don't have a business's phone number saved in your address book, the name you will see is the name the business has chosen for themselves.”

Please note also that you are free to block companies if you are being worried about getting spammed and the likes. Just open the conversation, tap the menu button, select More and hit Block.

Verified accounts are currently limited to a “small number of businesses”, but they’re likely to roll out a lot more widely in the very near future
