As a content creator and marketer, I often see creators and brands clamoring for verification checkmarks on TikTok \u2014 and I understand the excitement. To be verified on TikTok is like getting a golden ticket to the chocolate factory.<\/p>\n

It feels exclusive and rare, meaning you stand out from the crowd. And with TikTok predicted to be among the video-centric apps to see the most growth in 2024<\/a>, standing out will be crucial. <\/p>\n

A blue checkmark on TikTok doesn\u2018t mean you\u2019ll automatically step into the celebrity world and get the red carpet treatment. However, I can guarantee it’s a good look for your brand and a great step in growing your platform.<\/p>\n

But how do you get verified on TikTok? It\u2018s actually a bit easier than you might think. Here\u2019s how to get verified on TikTok and some tips I’ve gathered from being an endless scroller on the app.<\/p>\n

And from being an experienced marketer, of course.<\/p>\n

What does TikTok verification mean?<\/h2>\n

At its core, TikTok verification means that the account is verified to belong to the person or brand it represents.<\/p>\n

You’ve probably noticed that your favorite brands, musicians, creators, and public figures sport a blue checkmark next to their username. The checkmark means it’s their actual account, and you are following the right person.<\/p>\n

Why is TikTok verification important?<\/h3>\n

Let\u2018s be honest: It\u2019s a bit of a status symbol. Being verified on TikTok lets your followers know you\u2018re not some imposter \u2014 but it also lets others know you\u2019re worth following.<\/p>\n

Think about it: TikTok users will see your verified profile and think, \u201cThis person is so important that people want extra assurance that it’s them and not a bot or a faker.\u201d It adds legitimacy to your platform and a slight sense of exclusivity.<\/p>\n

Even I can admit my interest in some creators has been piqued by the appearance of a blue checkmark.<\/p>\n

Status aside, a verification badge also builds trust with your followers and establishes authority in specific topics or industries on the platform.<\/p>\n

For example, entertainment journalist Mona Kosar Abdi<\/a> is verified on TikTok, so her followers know the news they\u2018re receiving comes from a legitimate and reliable source.<\/p>\n

How to Get Verified on TikTok<\/h2>\n

In 2022, TikTok made it possible for users to apply for verification. Until then, it was up to a secret society behind the scenes to find creators and verify them as a reward for creating popular, high-quality content.<\/p>\n

OK, it wasn’t a secret society \u2014 just TikTok staff. Still, the process seemed really shrouded in secrecy, and it was always a delightful surprise for creators to log in and see that shiny blue checkmark.<\/p>\n

Nowadays, creators can fill out a simple application to be verified, though the app still reserves the right to choose or decline someone for verification.<\/p>\n

Here’s how to apply:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Open the TikTok App and click Profile in the bottom right corner.<\/li>\n
  2. Click the menu in the top right corner (the three horizontal lines).<\/li>\n
  3. Click Settings and Privacy.<\/li>\n
  4. Tap Account.<\/li>\n
  5. Tap Verification.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    You’ll need to meet three basic requirements to be eligible for verification:<\/p>\n
