What Verification Unlocks
Verification is required for several key platform features:
- Fan Clubs: Only verified artists can launch a Fan Club. See How to Launch a Fan Club for the full walkthrough, or Fan Clubs: A Guide for Artists and Fans for an overview.
- Message Blasts: Verified artists can send a Message Blast to their followers, purchasers, and remixers. Artists without verification can still qualify if they hold at least a bronze $AUDIO badge. See Direct Messaging for full eligibility details.
- Verified Badge: A verified badge appears on your profile and next to your name across the platform, helping fans identify your official account.
