How it works
When users decide to purchase a virtual good, they will see a dialogue pop-up asking if they want to pay later and have “Facebook send you a bill for (price of the good in local currency).” Further on, they will see their negative Credits balance in red with a link to “Repay” while playing games or using the Games dashboard. Users are also set to receive a receipt for the purchase via email with a link to settle their balance.
By clicking the link, users will be redirected to an Unpaid Order History page showing the goods they bought, their existing balance and a “Repay” button. If users choose to repay, the only available payment methods are via credit card and PayPal. Once a user has inputted the payment details for one of these methods, future purchases only require a single click.
If users decide to purchase additional virtual goods, they will be provided with the option to also pay off their debt during the transaction. However, users are not required to first settle there balance and can still buy more goods through the Pay Later system, increasing their debt.
