Official Business Account (OBA)

An Official Business Account (OBA) gives your business the green tick ✅ badge on WhatsApp, increasing trust and improving message open rates.

What is OBA?

The OBA badge appears next to your business name in customer chats. It signals that Meta has verified your business as legitimate and notable.

Benefits:

• Green checkmark next to your display name
• Higher customer trust and engagement
• Eligibility for higher message tier limits
• Better deliverability on broadcast campaigns

Requirements

Before applying, ensure:

2. ✅ KYC is approved
3. ✅ Business has an active online presence (website, social media)
