Twitter to let users apply to be a verified account

Twitter is offering its users the “blue tick” badge to all its users. This symbol for verified accounts was first made available to high-profile users, such as celebrities, politicians, public figures, etc.  But now all users can apply to get that blue tick attached to their profile. According to Twitter’s Tina Bhatnagar, Twitter’s goal is to give users access to “high-quality accounts to follow, and for creators and influencers—no matter where they are in the world—to easily connect with a broader audience.”

If you want to apply for the badge, you can check this link to access the online application form and Twitter will need you to meet some criteria, including a verified phone number, email address, website, and public tweet settings attached to them.
