Facebook relents on Credits, allows in-app currency offers

Facebook announced today that it will give developers the option to provide in-app offers in their native currency, the company announced in a blog post Friday.

The change should help developers since users are more likely to complete offers that involve the unique currency of the game they’re playing. Completing offers in units of Facebook Credits might not be as easy to understand for users who have to do the math to know what Credits convert to. “In-app offers,” as Facebook noted in its announcement, are an important way for developers to monetize users who might not otherwise buy virtual currency.
