Noticed a New Thing in Google Maps Search Results

[Matt Chauhan]

I noticed a new thing in Google Maps search results today in which under the listing of a particular business, a checkmark is there along with the text "Provides: Name of the service". See the attached screenshot for illustration. Can somebody help me understand what this is, where it is coming from, and if we can do it for our own business?

Thank you. It was very helpful. Please check the attached screenshot. Is the "Sold Here" thing also similar to services?
