Understanding the Google Business Profile Verification Process

Updated over 12 months ago

Google requires business verification to confirm you're authorized to manage a Google Business Profile. You will be presented with one (or more) of the following verification methods:

  • Two factor authentication (2FA) through text, email, or a phone call: You’ll receive a code to enter on Zocdoc.

  • Postcard: Google mails a code to your practice location.

  • Video Verification: You may be prompted to upload a short video or join a live video call with Google.

How Long Does It Take?

  • Instant for 2FA methods.

  • Up to 10 business days for postcard or video.

You can track the verification status of each profile inside your Zocdoc account under the Google Business Profile tab.
