Twitter verifications are now open for public: How to get that coveted ‘blue tick’ badge, check eligibility and other details

In a recent announcement by social media platform Twitter, the company is now rolling out its new verification application process, which means that it will review public applications for getting a ‘blue tick’ on the microblogging platform.

To be sure, the profile verification feature on Twitter is not new and the platform had been recognising such accounts for long. However, due to some confusion over endorsements, Twitter had suspended it in 2017. As the feature is being rolled back, new profiles on Twitter get a blue badge which will differentiate these from other profiles. The feature is expected to be available for all users in the coming days.
