Using Facebook PaymentFacebook owns a payment system available through the API to any developer wishing to earn money.Facebook Payments is a payment system that offers a safe, easy and  fast way to pay for digital and virtual goods in games and apps across  Facebook. Source: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/payments/build/This payment system is only dedicated to games and app for which we get nothing but some virtual goods.The Payment system doesn't allow you to sell and send anything.You may not accept Credits as payment for tangible goods, including as  payment for anything that may subsequently be used to acquire tangible  goods, defined as any good that is physically delivered to a user. Source: https://developers.facebook.com/policy/credits/Anyway, it would not have been a good idea... see:Facebook will earn a 30% service fee, plus any applicable  sales tax or VAT, in connection with each Facebook Payments  transaction on our platform.

Your website/app could eventually lead to a payment page which is independent from Facebook. So, a webshop through an app is allowed, as soon as it doesn't use Facebook Payment! The only restriction from the Facebook policy is:You will not sell or purchase any data obtained from us by anyone. Source: https://developers.facebook.com/policy/
