Facebook Sets July, 1, 2011 Deadline to Make Credits Sole Canvas Game Payment Option. Starting at its developer conference last April, Facebook has been saying publicly for the past year that Credits would eventually be the only payment option in social games on the site (although it started saying so to developers months before).
It had originally slated all developers to have completely made the switch by the end of 2010. While that has mostly happened, there are still many games not using Credits. So the company is announcing today that all developers who have games on canvas pages will need to move to only use Credits by July 1st of this year. New games will be required to use Credits as the virtual currency when they first set up their canvas pages; older games will also be required to switch to exclusively use Credits, too.
