PAYMENT TO FACEBOOK CONTACT

Payment to Facebook contact allows the user to initiate a payment to a Facebook friend without having the need to define a beneficiary/payee for payment. On selection of the mentioned option, user will need to login with Facebook credentials, select contact from the list and enter required payment details. On confirmation of the payment, system generates a security code that is displayed to the initiator which needs to be shared with the Facebook contact to claim the payment.

2) Limits defined for P2P transfer will be utilized
3) On initiation of the payment, account of the initiator will get debited or hold will be placed on the account depending on the bank setup
