According to Facebook, TechCrunch plans to monetise its Messenger platform by putting ads into it. The format of the ad is unclear but it is thought that the ads will only appear in message threads with businesses, meaning businesses can only serve ads to people that have contacted them via Messenger. A release date for these ads has not been confirmed yet but its thought to be for Q2 2016.
