New Delhi, January 9: Meta-owned WhatsApp is reportedly developing a new ‘Meta Verified’ subscription option that will allow businesses to subscribe to it to get a verified badge. According to WABetaInfo, this subscription will replace WhatsApp Premium, the previous subscription that included a custom business link and the ability to link up to 10 devices.

"A new setting will be available within the app settings in a future update, allowing businesses to subscribe to Meta Verified and build trust with their customers by displaying a verified badge," the report said. The report also noted that the Meta Verified subscription will be optional and exclusively accessible to businesses. WhatsApp New Feature Update: Meta-Owned Platform Rolls out New Feature That Allows Users To Share ‘Music Audio’ During Video Call on Android.
