About the previous verification process for apps
In addition to the verified creator badge, you'll also see badges for unverified and verified apps. These apps were published using the old method for verifying individual apps.

Note: The new publisher verification process for apps replaces the previous process where individual apps were verified. The new publisher verification process is similar to the verification process for actions. If you have apps that were verified under the old process, these will not be affected by the changes. The GitHub Marketplace team will contact you with details of how to migrate to organization-based verification.
