Roblox’s Verified Badge helps users easily identify authentic accounts and give our notable community members and groups an extra mark of distinction.
About Verified Badge:
What is a verified badge?
The Verified Badge is a visual indicator that allows users to easily identify notable and authentic creators, developers, groups, and off-platform figures. The badge helps address impersonation on the platform and indicates that Roblox has confirmed the account belongs to the user or group it represents, and they meet our criteria for notability.
How can I tell if an account is verified on Roblox?
Roblox is a global community founded on creation and connection! You may notice some of your favorite Roblox users and groups with a blue Roblox checkmark on their profile. This indicates the account belongs to a notable and authentic user or group. You’ll see the Verified Badge next to account names across Marketplace user and group profile pages, item and experience detail pages, as well as in search.
If a profile does not have the badge attached to their display name, but it appears somewhere else, like in their bio or in images, then it's not a verified account. Verified badges can only be granted by Roblox and will appear in the same places every time.
Why do we have it?
Roblox’s verified badge is an easy way for users to know they’re interacting with authentic developers, creators, and off-platform figures. This badge provides an important layer of confidence and clarity for everyone on Roblox.
As a platform for creators, Roblox wants to help you easily identify and discover notable and authentic profiles with our new Verified Badge. The verified badge is a clear way to tell that the profile belongs to a notable creator, developer, or group and is authentic rather than an impersonator, duplicate, or fan account.
Will not having a Verified Badge impact my content and its discoverability?
No, the Verified Badge will not impact search and recommendations for new or unverified creators.
Why don’t I see the Verified Badge?
We are currently running tests on the Verified Badge, so some users may not see it right away!
Isn’t there already a badge like this on Talent Hub?
The Verified Badge is different from the ID verification badges on Talent Hub– those badges are only for ID verification, but the Verified Badge (aka Roblox’s blue checkmark) is to distinguish notable and authentic creators on the platform.
Receiving Verified Badges:
How do I apply for the Verified Badge?
At this time, there is no application process– as we roll out this new feature, we're notifying creators who meet the established criteria to participate.
How are verified badges given?
Several factors are considered when granting a verified badge, including whether the account is notable, authentic, and adheres to our Community Standards and Terms of Use.
However, a verified badge does not imply an endorsement by Roblox. All users must adhere to our guidelines to ensure that Roblox remains a safe, civil, and fun platform for everyone–verified users are no exception!
Verified Badge Invitation Process
When launched, we will begin sending notifications to qualified accounts via email and DevForum.
How do I qualify for a Verified Badge?
We’re currently looking at three main criteria for potential Verified Badge holders:
- Notable, aka widely recognized
- Roblox has such an incredibly diverse community, so we’ve established different selection criteria to encompass all the fantastic folks here:
User/Group Type
Criteria Metric
Experience Devs
Owners of top experiences by hours of engagement
Key contributors to top experiences by hours of engagement with high platform following
UGC Creators
Top creators by item sales/revenue
Off-platform figures (Influencers, Artists, Brands)
Influencers: Part of Roblox’s Video Stars Program
Brands: Official presence and notability on other sites and platforms
- Roblox has such an incredibly diverse community, so we’ve established different selection criteria to encompass all the fantastic folks here:
- Authentic, aka you are who you claim to be
- We need to make sure you’re the real deal, so each account must be ID verified to receive a Verified Badge. You must also have 2-step verification by Authenticator App enabled.
- Eligible, aka you are an active user that follows Roblox Community Standards and Terms of Use
- Verified figures must be active on the platform, aka have logged into their account in the last six months, and adhere to our Community Standards and Terms of Use.
How many hours of engagement or items sold do creators need to receive the Verified Badge?
We are not sharing the exact numerical thresholds at this time because we will be lowering the notability criteria as the program evolves to provide even more creators access to the badge.
There are over 10.5 million developers and creators on Roblox, how many will receive Verified Badges?
The number will constantly increase as we periodically verify more creators that reach our criteria and add new types of creators to the Verified Badge program.
Can I lose the Verified Badge?
Yes. If your violations of our Community Standards and Terms of Use lead to removal from the platform, you will lose your badge by default. We also reserve the right to revoke the badge if a recipient repeatedly violates our standards and terms, which include intellectual property infringement. If you try to sell or spoof the badge, this will also make you ineligible and remove the badge from your account.
Additionally, if you make changes to your account that impact our authenticity verification, you can lose the badge. Account changes that disable the badge are: removing 2-step verification by Authenticator App, removing ID verification, changing your username or display name, changing the group’s name, or changing the group’s owner.
I lost my verified badge, but I believe it’s a mistake– what do I do?
Please reach out to us through our Customer Support form. Provide your username and details regarding your lost verified badge, particularly any account changes that were made before losing the badge.
I see an account that’s verified, but they’re copying my original content or infringing on my trademark in their experiences, items, account name, or group name – what should I do?
Please submit an intellectual property takedown report to us if you believe someone is copying your content. We will review and remove the content if appropriate. You can learn more about intellectual property reporting on Roblox here.
What’s the future of Verified Badge?
This is just the first phase of Roblox’s Verified Badge–the program is evolving and will improve over time to include even more of the Roblox community! As the program grows, we will be periodically verifying more creators when they meet the established criteria as well as new types of creators. We will also be adjusting the notability standards to include more creators as the program continues.
Here are some examples of what the badge will look like and where it will appear on the platform:
