Frequently Asked Questions
Which platforms can you verify me on?
We work across all major platforms including Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Facebook, X (Twitter), Spotify, SoundCloud, and Apple Music. The platforms covered depend on your goals and current online presence.
Is verification guaranteed?
No service can guarantee verification, as the final decision rests with each platform. However, we only proceed once we have reviewed your profile and are confident in your eligibility. You do not pay until we have confirmed we can move forward with your application.
How much does social media verification cost?
Pricing varies depending on the platform, your current online presence, and the work involved. Because every artist profile is different, we assess your eligibility first and provide full pricing details before you commit. There is no charge for the initial review.
What do I need to have in place before applying?
Platforms typically look for an active and complete profile, a consistent posting history, and evidence of notability – such as press coverage, a Wikipedia page, or a Google Knowledge Panel. Our team will advise you on exactly what is needed after reviewing your profile as part of the free eligibility check.
Do I need press coverage to get verified?
Press coverage significantly strengthens verification applications on most platforms. If you do not yet have sufficient coverage, we can advise on how to build it – or we can recommend our Blog Promotion service to establish your press profile before we submit your application.
How long does the verification process take?
Timelines vary by platform. Once your application is submitted, decisions can take anywhere from a few days to several weeks. We keep you updated at every stage so you always know exactly where your application stands.
Do you need access to my social media accounts?
In most cases, no direct access to your accounts is required. Discovery Music Group will never ask for your passwords or personal login details. Any access that may be needed will be clearly communicated and agreed with you in advance.
Which artists do you accept for this service?
We work with music artists only – including singers, rappers, DJs, producers, bands, composers, and instrumentalists. We do not currently offer this service to influencers, businesses, or non-music brands.
What happens if my application is rejected?
If your application is unsuccessful, we review the outcome, identify what needs to be strengthened, and advise on the best path forward. Some platforms allow resubmission after a waiting period, and we will guide you through that process.
Do you ensure client confidentiality?
Yes. We adhere to the strictest parameters of client confidentiality. No client details, application information, or correspondence is ever shared publicly unless we have explicit permission from the client.
What payment methods do you accept?
We accept PayPal and Bank Transfer. Full payment details are provided once your eligibility has been confirmed and you are ready to proceed.
