Facebook will launch its own monetary system fictitious "credits", similar to fanimanis Virtualia if anyone remembers them, but focused (first instance) to games that operate within the network.
The credits begin operating on 1 July this year and will be mandatory for applications that use virtual goods sold within the network - like a purple cow in Farmville, for example. The idea is that these credits to replace the large number of "coins" that have appeared on Facebook in the last time (in Cityville CityCash, FarmBucks in Farmville, FishPoints at Playfish, etc).
Thus, the credits will be the official way to deposit money to the games on Facebook. The good news is that will be standard, so that these loans serve different games. Developers, however, will be able to have its own internal economy, so that 10 credits would be 15 coins Facebook CityCash, Zynga because inflation is higher - for example.
Using "Facebook claims" would give better benefits but some developers, to promote virtual property page for network games. Facebook is still in talks with developers, who are not very happy with the idea because the network will be 30% of users to invest money in loans.
Although now only work with games, it is possible that if it works and many people begin to use these credits, we can begin to see options to shop online with this coin Facebook, either objects or services.
