6 Ways to Manage your Maya Account Via Facebook Messenger

Convenience is so important these days. We want little to no hassle in everything we do, so even if you have your Maya app on your phone, you still want it to be more accessible.

Being the most used communication platform, it’s such a relief that we can use Facebook Messenger to manage our Maya accounts as if we’re just chatting!

With Maya in Messenger, you don’t have to switch apps or log in to your Maya app every time. Here are six ways on how you can access and manage your Maya account via Messenger:

 #1  Check Balance
