Facebook's virtual gift store has become a very important source of revenue for the site.

In the past, users had to pay dollars directly for virtual gifts, so Facebook priced everything at $1.

On Monday, Facebook unveiled a micropayment system in which each dot is worth one cent. This allows Facebook to sell virtual gifts with flexible pricing.

The adoption of micropayment systems can bring two advantages.

On the one hand, the system brings more convenience to users.

On the other hand, because of the prepaid method, users often have a certain balance in their accounts, which allows Facebook to earn considerable interest income. Webware
