Introduction
Facebook rolled out their payment system via Messenger over a year ago. I was excited by this thinking I could possibly liquidate VGC. However, I was also worried that FB would ban me if I did too many payments. After realizing VGC didn’t work, I tested my PPBDC card to see if it would earn 1%. Sure enough, it did. However, the most I could push through was $400 daily. I didn’t try higher than that.
Scaling
Like I said, I was worried FB would ban me, so I didn’t go too hard. Plus, there was another method to liquidate PPBDC at 1% in higher volume. However, that also died recently too. That’s why I was going to try the FB payments again, but it seems as of the end of July, either FB or Paypal has blocked the use of PPBDC. Now you get this error:
Conclusion
If you still have a “real” debit card that earns cashback or points, you can try to use it on FB Messenger, but I wouldn’t go too hard if you care about your FB account.
