Germany may look down upon Facebook’s facial-recognition software, but things are looking up for Ondango, a Facebook-commerce specialist based in Berlin.

Ondango has completed its first financing round and emerged from a closed beta.

The company’s shopping solution allows vendors to create shops on their Facebook pages, with potential customers using the familiar Facebook interface and not having to deal with app requests.

The entire transaction takes place via the social network. Features available for vendors include the like button, the send button, comments, Twitter integration, product catalogs, image galleries, and the ability for shoppers to share links and their purchases.
