Epic Research Singapore : Facebook Market News Update

Facebook Inc is preparing to join the mobile-payments race with remittances and electronic-money services on the social network, the Financial Times reported on Sunday, citing several people involved in the process.


The company is close to obtaining approval from the Central Bank of Ireland to start a service that would allow users to store money on Facebook and use it to pay and exchange with others, the people told the FT.

The company has also had partnership talks with at least three London start-ups - TransferWise, Moni Technologies and Azimo - that offer online and mobile international money transfer services, three people involved in the discussions told FT.

Facebook's specific plans, including which countries the electronic-money services would be available in, were not immediately clear.

Epic Research Singapore :Facebook Market News Update

Facebook Inc. FB +0.50% is getting ready to launch financial services, which would let people make payments and store their money via its social network, the Financial Times reported Monday. It is seeking regulatory approval in Ireland for the service, with a decision only weeks away, the FT said, citing people involved in the process. Under the plans, Facebook's "e-money" would be a claim against the company and be valid in Europe. Alongside this, the social-networking provider is looking into partnerships with London-based companies focused on online money transfers: TransferWise, Moni Technologies and Azimo, the report said. Facebook had not responded to a request for comment at time of writing. Facebook shares rose 0.1% ahead of the open.

Epic Research Singapore : Facebook Market News Update

Facebook revealed on Thursday it has a lab working on using drones, satellites and solar-powered planes to provide web access around the world.

"We've been working on ways to beam Internet to people from the sky," Facebook co-founder and chief Mark Zuckerberg said in a post on the leading social network.

The team at the Connectivity Lab builds on a quest by Facebook-launched Internet.org to make access to basic online services available everywhere on the planet.

"Connecting the whole world will require inventing new technology too," Mr Zuckerberg said.

Epic Research Singapore : Facebook Market News Update

When Facebook announced that it agreed to buy Oculus VR, a developer of virtual-reality glasses, for $2 billion, investors got concerned again.

On the conference call with investors, Zuckerberg tried to portray each of these recent, high-valuation deals as extremely rare and not something that Facebook is going to embark on again in the next few months.

I guess you should not expect us to make a couple of multi-billion-dollar acquisitions over the next couple of months,” Zuckerberg said. “There are not many candidates to be the next computing platform.”
