Update on Verified Badges

Roblox seems to have completely stopped verifying users based on group roles, including high-ranking positions like Group Owners. Over the past few months, no one has received the checkmark purely through group affiliation.

At the moment, the only consistent way to get verified appears to be by owning an eligible experience directly on your profile. Star Creators are still being verified, but aside from them, I haven’t seen anyone recently get verified for UGC, group ownership, or contribution to groups.

Verification seems to be limited strictly to individual experience ownership or participation in official programs like the Star Creator Program. Group roles, even leadership positions, no longer seem to influence verification in the current waves.

Yes, people have gotten verified by using the same display name as a verified user before, but Roblox sometimes resets your display name to your username if it’s not a standard or common name.

Yeah, Roblox rarely hosts AMAs these days, and even when they do, they usually avoid questions about things like verification. For now, we just have to wait for a miraculous random response to pop up in this thread again.

Not every staff member handles the same things and often they don’t get updates about what other teams or sections are working on. He probably works in a different area entirely and might not even be fully aware of the verification issues.

The team responsible for verifications has clearly tightened things up recently, likely because of the surge in illegitimately acquired checkmarks. To prevent that, they attempt to limit who can get verified, which unfortunately means group contributors and owners are getting left out for now. It’s frustrating, but it seems like Roblox is ““trying”” to regain control over the system - even if that means keeping things quiet and restrictive for the time being.

Is there any way I could transfer my game group ownership to my profile?

no if a game is under your group you cant transfer it, only from profile to group.

Did anyone else meet criteria thru marketplace sales/revenue and not get the verified badge? I hit the requirements before the most recent wave and didn’t receive it.

Was it only through bundles, accessories, and clothing? I believe gamepasses don’t count towards the badge requirements.

It was through UGC accessories and layered clothing.

I have a question, if a group that has a Verified Badge changes its name (only the name, not the owner), will the badge be awarded again after some time if the group meets the requirements to get the badge?

nope

roblox support wont help either and will beg you to change the group name back
