Meta copies Twitter to launch Facebook and Instagram verified subscription
Elon Musk is evolutionary because when he started the layoffs at Twitter and others followed, he began to cut the company operations and other copies, he jumped to the subscription service, and now others are copying including Meta, which is now testing a paid verified subscription service for Facebook and Instagram.
According to a message published by Meta CEO, Mark Zuckerberg, his company is preparing to launch a new product this week called “Meta Verified”.
This is a subscription service that will you users to verify accounts with a government ID. He mentioned that the benefits of the subscription include a blue badge and impersonation protection.
Other information reveals that users with this service will get exclusive stickers for stories and reels posted to Instagram and Facebook.
It will also bring up 100 free stars per month or a digital currency you can use to tip creators on Facebook.
Price:
Meta Verified starts at $11.99 per month on the web and $14.99 per month on iOS. The verification will first roll out in Australia and New Zealand this week and will expand to more soon.
Twitter:
Compared to this, Twitter Blue verification service is available for $8 per month on the web and $11 on iOS and it offers a ton of features as compared to Meta.
It will rank you up in the replies, mentions, and search, along with fewer ads, you can post long videos and get early access to many of the features.
People and media have been criticizing Elon Musk and Twitter for this paid charge and now Meta is doing the same to active verified accounts on Facebook and Instagram, what would they say to this? It’s a reasonable question.
