What this question tests

Metrics structuring for a payments product, balancing adoption, transaction health, and trust.

How to approach it

  1. Clarify Meta Pay's role: enabling payments across Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp for purchases and peer to peer transfers.
  2. Define the north star: monthly active payers, users who complete at least one transaction.
  3. Add transaction health metrics: payment success rate and average transaction completion time.
  4. Add a trust guardrail: dispute and fraud rate per transaction, since payments products live or die on trust.
  5. Add a growth metric: percentage of eligible checkout flows where Meta Pay is offered and selected as the payment method.
  6. Set an illustrative target, for example assuming payment success rate above 98 percent and fraud rate under 0.1 percent.
