The users will be able to enter their payment information once and can buy, earn and spend safely across various games or applications they use on Facebook.

"Starting July 1, we will require all social game developers on the Facebook canvas platform to process payments through Facebook Credits," Facebook Platform Marketing Manager Deb Liu wrote on the company's official blog in January.

This will also help various brands, which use the medium of Facebook to retail them goods through their social pages.

"Facebook Credits is currently used in more than 350 applications from 150 developers, representing more than 70 per cent of virtual goods transactions volume on Facebook," Liu had said.
