Ribbon's in-stream app payment service back on Twitter

Social payment service Ribbon is back on Twitter, just a day after the micro-blogging website pulled support for it on Twitter Cards. Twitter had mysteriously taken off support for Ribbon hours after its launch.Ribbon’s co-founder Hany Rashwan wrote in a blog that the service was being supported by Twitter again after <em>“a productive conversation” with the micro-blogging site regarding Product Cards. It must be noted, though, that the product cards are still not what Ribbon had originally launched, but the two companies seem to have found a middle path somewhere. Ribbon is being supported on Product Cards, but you still can’t make purchases on Twitter. It still isn’t clear why Twitter suddenly pulled the plug on Ribbon’s in-stream app payment, and Rashwan’s newer blog post does not shed any light on it either. Clearly, Twitter believes that Ribbon was in violation of some Terms of Services, but we’re not sure which.
