What does a red check next to a users profile mean?
A red check on Truth Social lets users know that an account of public interest is genuine and not an imposter, impersonation, or parody. Red checks are reserved for well known, highly searched notable accounts in the following catagories:
- Government
- Brands, companies
- Journalists
- Sports (including esports)
- Entertainment
What is the process for receiving a red check?
For an account to be considered for red check verification, you must be an active user of Truth Social. Truth Social users will be considered active users upon completion of the following steps:
- Your account must have a complete profile name with a profile image.
- Your phone number and email address must be confirmed.
- Your account must be actively posting content.
To apply for red check on Truth Social, you will be asked to provide the following information to confirm your identity:
An official website that confirms you or your organization’s identity.
A valid official government issued identification document, like a passport or driver’s license.
An official email (i.e., a branded email address that matches your official website).
Announce on your verified Twitter or Instagram account where users can find you on Truth Social. The announcement must not be removed for six months.
The submitted information will be considered by our verification team. Submission of this information does not guarantee that your account will receive red check verification.
What about other ways to authenticate that my account on Truth Social is me?
We are in the process of working on alternative ways of authenticating accounts not commonly recognized as notable. Thank you for your patience.
