How to Create a Facebook Deal on a Merged Page
Create a Facebook deal on a Facebook Place page you've merged with your establishment's fan page to give existing and prospective fans who "check-in" to your establishment using Facebook Places incentive to return. Facebook deals are only available to owners of pages that are linked with a Facebook Place, so "claim" your Facebook Place page before you attempt to create a deal.
