Will Facebook 'grandfather' existing games from having to use Facebook Credits exclusively?
-
Techcrunch recently reported that Facebook is making Facebook Credits mandatory: http://techcrunch.com/2011/01/24/facebook-to-make-facebook-credits-mandatory-for-game-developers/. I am wondering if that is for future games or if existing games need to rework their cash system.

Answer:
Yes. All apps will have to have Credits enabled by July 1st. http://www.insidesocialgames.com/2011/01/24/facebook-sets-july-1-2011-deadline-to-make-credits-sole-canvas-game-payment-option/

"Exclusively" was an early term thrown out but it's looking much more likely to be "mandatory." This would mean, Facebook Credits would have to be a purchase option in-game for players that is at least as prominent as any other available payment option. I don't forsee applications getting grandfathered in, Facebook will impose a timeline for everyone to get on track with the program. As the TechCrunch article states, the "big guys" are already on board.
