Facebook Testing New Fee For Some Users
"According to a report from The Guardian, Facebook began informing some users earlier this month that a Meta Verified subscription would be required in order to share more than two external links on Facebook. "Starting 16 December, certain Facebook profiles without Meta Verified will be limited to sharing two organic [ie free] posts per month. Subscribe to Meta Verified to share more links on Facebook, plus get a verified badge and additional benefits," Facebook warned in a message shared to users."
"For the vast majority of its existence, Facebook has been a place where people have liked to share news and links to websites with their friends. However, it sounds like Facebook is considering making that a paid feature. Facebook is currently running what it describes as a "limited test" in which users would be required to pay a subscription fee to Meta Verified in order to share more than two external links in a month."
Facebook is testing a policy that limits non-subscribers to two organic external link shares per month. Some users received notices saying that starting 16 December profiles without Meta Verified will face the restriction. Meta Verified subscriptions start at $11.99 per month and provide a blue verification checkmark, proactive impersonation protection, direct human support, and increased visibility. Facebook describes the change as a limited test to decide whether to expand it. The subscription resembles verification offerings on X. Limiting link shares could significantly impact news publishers that rely on Facebook for traffic.
