How do I activate the check-in feature for my Facebook Page?

Question

I manage a Fan Page for a hotel in Dubai. My client's address is not being recognized by Facebook as we currently do not use postal codes here.

Is there a way to activate the "check in" mechanism without this?

Answer 1

When creating the Page, you should have chosen the Local Business or Place category.

If this was not done originally, then it can be fixed after-the-fact using:

Edit Page ==> Update Public Info ==> Basic Information:

change Category: to Local Businesses.
