Frequently Asked Questions

How does Meta Pay work?

Meta Pay is a seamless and secure way to make payments on Facebook, Messenger, Instagram, and in participating online stores. Enter your payment card or account information just once and then use Meta Pay to make purchases, send money or donate. Add a Meta Pay PIN or use the fingerprint or face ID on your device to secure individual payments. Meta Pay also lets you view your payment history, manage payment information and access customer support.

Is it secure to make payments with Meta Pay?

We use advanced technology to keep payment information secure. Meta Pay is protected with:

  • Anti-fraud technology that monitors purchases on Meta Pay’s systems to detect unauthorized activity.

  • Payment card numbers are securely stored, encrypted and stored separately from your profile data.

  • Notifications that alert you if Meta Pay detects unusual activity.

  • An option to create a PIN or use the fingerprint or face ID on your device for additional security when sending money or making a payment. Facebook does not receive or store your device’s biometric information.

How do I set up a Meta Pay PIN?

When making a payment with Meta Pay, you may be required to set up a PIN (PIN is mandatory in some use cases) by selecting a 4-digit numeric pass code. You may also be able to use your device's face ID or fingerprint for an extra layer of security.

You can also set up a Meta Pay PIN and make it a requirement for sending payments by going to Orders and payments settings. As part of our commitment to security, we may require Meta Pay PIN verification when certain types of transactions appear as unusual activity.
