Facebook launches Deals in late April with hopes of 750 million more of its members to use the product in their everyday commercial transactions.

Deals feature itself is basically an extension of service up Places. Deals to provide incentives for Facebook users to integrate Places in their daily lives, and they are also an incentive for major marketers and brands to put more money into the Facebook platform.
