A verified badge is a small blue checkmark that appears next to your profile name. It confirms your account has been reviewed and is authentic — it belongs to who you say you are.
What the badge does for you
- Builds trust: Other users know your account is genuine.
- Protects your identity: It helps people distinguish your real account from impersonators.
- May increase visibility: Verified accounts are more likely to appear in recommendations across the platform.
What verification doesn't mean
Verification is not an endorsement from UpScrolled, and it doesn't come with special treatment or privileges.
A verified badge only confirms identity — it doesn't guarantee behavior. Verified accounts can still violate rules and face consequences just like any other account.
Do Community Guidelines still apply?
Yes. All accounts, verified or not, must follow the [Community Guidelines](#). Verification has no bearing on how rules are enforced.
