Facebook takes on Apple Pay with its own service

INNOVATING NEW WAYS TO TAKE YOUR MONEY.

It will eventually allow you to make payments across the company’s four major platforms – Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, and WhatsApp – but is limited to just Facebook and Messenger at the time. You’ll need to go to the Facebook Pay section of either app’s settings page in order to enable the payment service. It’s also restricted to just the U.S. at launch, though the company is promising a wider rollout in the future.
