BENGALURU, India: Twitter will tentatively launch its blue check subscription feature next Friday, Chief Executive Officer Elon Musk said in a tweet, after holding off on the launch earlier this week.
The social media platform will use different colour checks for organisations and individuals, Musk said.
“Gold check for companies, grey check for governments, blue for individuals (celebrities or not). Painful, but necessary,” Musk said in a tweet.
All verified accounts will be manually authenticated before the check is activated, Musk said.
