Instagram Paid Blue Tick Verification

As Twitter introduced its Blue subscription across several countries using which users can get Blue Tick , other social media companies might follow their idea and introduce Paid Blue Tick feature. A claim made by a reverse engineer suggests that instagram is testing paid blue tick feature. So , we also tried to confirm that the paid blue tick code is used in instagram or not.



As you can see above , we found that in instagram latest application (v269.0.0.14.75) , there are two strings used which suggest paid blue badge identity verification for both Instagram and Facebook which means that in future Meta may introduce paid blue tick subscription for users on their both platforms (Facebook & Instagram)

The strings which suggest about paid blue badge are :

  • FB_NME_PAID_BLUE_BADGE_IDV
  • IG_NME_PAID_BLUE_BADGE_IDV
