Pay Fast together with Vendor shops adapts to the Social Media Environment through Facebook.

With no doubt the majority of Social media users use these social media platforms to chat, view photos and network, forgetting that  social media platforms can do a lot for them.

Pay Fast and  Vendor shops have  became the first South African company to announce the integrating of their services paving way for the Face book commerce (f commerce) in South Africa South Africans can now:
*set up a virtual shopping cart on their Face book Page.
*run offer.
*deal interact with fans.
*processed in rand.

Wow that sounds fascinating indeed I believe. I am sure that people will begin thinking twice on how they can better use their Facebook account.
