WhatsApp green tick verification rejected?

If obtaining the green tick verification badge on WhatsApp was easy for everyone, its value would diminish. It's important to understand that only a small percentage of businesses are actually successful in obtaining the green badge. Unfortunately, WhatsApp does not provide details about the reasons for rejecting an application. However, the silver lining is that businesses have the option to reapply after a 30-day waiting period. So, there's no need to panic if your application gets rejected initially.
