# Meta Business Verification

Business verification is how Meta confirms that your business is a legitimate business or organization. It's free, and it's not the same as the Meta blue tick (verified badge).

Zaapi restricts the sending of broadcasts and template messages until your Meta Business has been verified.

#### How to verify your Meta Business

To verify your business in Meta Business Manager:

1. Go to [**Business Settings > Security Center**](https://business.facebook.com/settings/security) and click **Start Verification**.
2. Add your organization details: legal name, address, phone number, and website.
3. Choose how you'd like to receive your confirmation code.
4. Upload your business's supporting documents.
5. Enter the confirmation code.
6. Click **Done**.
