Payments via Facebook Messenger soon to be a reality
A few months from now, US-based users of Facebook's Messenger app will be able to send and receive money via it for free, the company has announced on Tuesday.
The option will be available in the Android, iOS, and desktop apps, via a $ icon. "The money you send is transferred right away. It may take one to three business days to make the money available to you depending on your bank, just as it does with other deposits," the company noted.
