As we announced in June 2012, we are moving from Facebook Credits to local currency pricing. Local currency payments simplifies the purchase experience for users, improves the performance of the payments flow, and makes it easier for developers to price virtual goods for a global audience. We are migrating all game developers on Facebook.com in Q3 2013 and want to provide ample time for you to review the new documentation before we launch local currency payments. After launch, developers will have a minimum of 90 days to implement the updated payments infrastructure to continue accepting payments.
