WhatsApp has detailed[1] how users can identify if a business they are communicating with on the app is verified. In a dedicated FAQ page on its website, WhatsApp[2] says users can head to the business’ profile and look for a badge; there are three types of badges that indicate a profile belongs to a business. The badge with green tick signifies a Verified profile and that an authentic brand owns the account, while the badge with grey tick is for Confirmed profiles and indicates that the phone number is indeed of a brand.

WhatsApp also says users will be able to block business accounts from contacting them in Settings.
