Facebook Rolls Out New Tool That Lets Users Buy Food, Movie Tickets On Site

24-Oct-2016 - USA

Facebook announced Wednesday that it is introducing a variety of new features that help its users to use those connections to discover new things in the world around you, decide what to do or where to go, and connect with local businesses in easier and faster ways.

The social network giant said it is rolling out a new tool that will now allow Americans to order a meal, buy movie tickets or make an appointment at the hairdresser without having to leave the site.

The US company announced that it revamped the Events bookmark on Facebook. This new version of the events dashboard will start to roll out in the US in the coming weeks.

The users can now order food from restaurants directly from their Facebook Pages. Simply click "Start Order" on any restaurant's Facebook Page that uses Delivery.com or Slice.

For many new movies this fall, users can buy movie tickets straight from their Facebook Pages via Fandango. (dpa)
