Twitter is officially ending its old verification process on April 1. To get a blue check mark, you'll have to pay.

Twitter Blue subscribers will also have access to several new features on Twitter.

Accounts must be complete, meaning they have a display name and profile photo, and they must have active use in the past 30 days to subscribe.

When Elon Musk took over the company and announced plans for a blue check mark subscription, many critics raised questions about impersonators and parody accounts paying for a blue check mark, which can deceive other users into thinking they are real people — not fake accounts pretending to be real people.

Accounts that don't follow Twitter policies are also at risk of losing the check mark under the subscription program.
