How to Get Verified on X With a Hack

All you need to do is copy and paste an image of the blue checkmark onto your X profile page background. There are websites that provide free blue checkmark images like the ones used by actual employees and paid or notable users. Make sure the blue checkmark is placed right next to your name so that your profile appears legitimate to the public.

The X Verification Process

The verification process on X has changed since it was Twitter. While proof of identity is still a part of getting the blue badge, the main component is paying for the Premium or Premium+ plans. These are paid subscriptions that may come with other benefits.

Companies have a different verification process than individuals, along with a yellow badge. Verifying a business costs $1,000 a month, which is way more than the individual options.

Benefits of Verification

Having a verified account can be very valuable for businesses that want to appear to be legitimate to the outside world.

Individuals may want to verify to gain credibility. This perception has changed since the conversion to X, however, since conceivably anybody who pays can get the badge, whether they are who they claim to be or not.

Risks of Hacking Your Account

If you do decide to hack your account and use a blue checkmark, you should be aware that the company may decide to suspend your account and ban you from the platform. Individuals can also be banned when they decide to misuse badges, including the famous blue checkmark. The improper use of photos to make it appear as though one is affiliated with someone they aren't is a violation of the terms of service.

Business owners should be especially careful about using this hack. If your followers discover that your account isn't legitimately verified, then you may lose the trust of your customers or fans.
