How To Set Up Payment On A Blog Or Facebook

Today we're introducing Facebook Pay, which will provide people with a convenient, secure and consistent payment experience across Facebook, Messenger, Instagram and WhatsApp.

People already use payments across our apps to shop, donate to causes and send money to each other. Facebook Pay will make these transactions easier while continuing to ensure your payment information is secure and protected.

With Facebook Pay you can:

Add your preferred payment method once then use Facebook Pay where available to make payments and purchases on our apps, instead of having to re-enter your payment information each time
S et up Facebook Pay app-by-app, or choose to set it up for use across apps (where available) — that means we won't automatically set up Facebook Pay across the apps you are active on, unless you choose to do so
View payment history, manage payment methods and update your settings in one place
Get real-time customer support via live chat in the US (and in more places around the world in the future)
Clearly understand which payment services are part of Facebook

Facebook Pay will begin rolling out on Facebook and Messenger this week in the US for fundraisers, in-game purchases, event tickets, person-to-person payments on Messenger and purchases from select Pages and businesses on Facebook Marketplace. And over time, we plan to bring Facebook Pay to more people and places, including for use across Instagram and WhatsApp.

How It Works

You can start using Facebook Pay on Facebook or Messenger with just a few taps:

Go to "Settings" > "Facebook Pay" on the Facebook app or website
Add a payment method
The next time you make a payment, use Facebook Pay

Once Facebook Pay is available on WhatsApp and Instagram, you'll be able to set it up directly within each app.

Facebook Pay supports most major credit and debit cards as well as PayPal. Payments are processed in partnership with companies like PayPal, Stripe and others around the world. Facebook Pay is built on existing financial infrastructure and partnerships, and is separate from the Calibra wallet which will run on the Libra network. (Update on December 1, 2020 at 6:05AM PT: Calibra is now called Novi, and Libra is now called Diem.)

Security and Protection for Payments

Facebook has offered trusted payment experiences since 2007, and we've processed more than $2 billion in donations alone since we launched our first fundraising tools in 2015.

With Facebook Pay, we're continuing to invest in security. We designed Facebook Pay to securely store and encrypt your card and bank account numbers, perform anti-fraud monitoring on our systems to detect unauthorized activity and provide notifications for account activity. You can also add a PIN or use your device biometrics, such as touch or face ID recognition, for an extra layer of security when sending money or making a payment. Facebook does not receive or store your device's biometric information. Learn more about Facebook Pay privacy .

What's Next

Facebook Pay is part of our ongoing work to make commerce more convenient, accessible and secure for people on our apps. And in doing so, we believe we can help businesses grow and empower people everywhere to buy and sell things online. We'll continue to develop Facebook Pay and look for ways to make it even more valuable for people on our apps.
