ToggleWhat is a WhatsApp green tick?
WhatsApp Green Tick is a badge that appears on your WhatsApp API number profile. You will receive it once your Business profile has been successfully verified by WhatsApp, indicating that you are an Official Business Account.
Official business account:
If your WhatsApp account is an official business account, the display name will be visible in the chat list, chat screens, chat groups, and contacts view instead of the phone number. In addition, there will be a green checkmark beside the displayed name in the contacts view.
How to verify a WhatsApp business account?
Below are the steps to apply to get a Green Tick on WhatsApp:
You must first apply for WhatsApp API access through a WhatsApp Business Solution Provider (BSP) such as WATI
Once your WhatsApp Business API access is approved, you can reach out to your BSP to apply for Green Tick
However, the green tick application may be rejected if your business is not reputed. The rights to approve your green tick remain with WhatsApp, and the BSP has no role to play in that.
