Do companies have to pay Facebook for using the Facebook logo on their products? - lilia - 02-28-2013 02:58 PM

I've been noticing how more and more items I purchase at grocery stores have a little Facebook logo and say "Find us on Facebook," advertising their Facebook page. Does it cost companies extra to include that? Is the Facebook logo copyrighted?

Yes, it's the same like putting ads on their site.

No, the facebook logo is available free of charge.
Here is facebooks regulations associated with using their name and logo:

Do you know the brand Oregon Chia Tea? I just noticed on their packaging last night how they used the facebook and twitter logos and thought is was adorable.
