The Ultimate Guide to Getting the WhatsApp Green Tick
Have you ever noticed the small green checkmark next to a business's name on WhatsApp? That is the highly coveted Official Business Account (OBA) badge, more commonly known as the Green Tick. This badge indicates that WhatsApp has verified that an authentic, notable brand owns this account.
Having a Green Tick instantly boosts your brand's credibility. When a customer receives a message from a Green Tick account, they know it's not spam, which dramatically increases open rates and engagement. However, getting this tick isn't automatic—it requires going through the WhatsApp Business API and submitting a formal application to Meta.
Eligibility Requirements
To be eligible for the Green Tick, your business must meet specific criteria set by Meta. The most important factor is notability.
- WhatsApp Business API: You must be using the API (e.g., via MsgFlow.in). Standard app users cannot get the Green Tick.
- Tier 2 Messaging Level: You should have a healthy messaging history and be in at least Tier 2.
- Organic PR & Media Mentions: Your business must be featured in 3-5 major news publications (paid press releases do not count).
- Verified Facebook Business Manager: Your FB Business Manager must be fully verified with your legal business details.
