The second biggest social network in The Netherlands (Hyves) introduced something like this in 2010. They mainly intended it to be used to pay back (small) debts to friends or relatives, but also made partnerships that enabled you to order food online or order drinks at a bar.

As far as I know, it did not really lift off, but this could be because Facebook overtook Hyves as the most popular social network shortly afterwards.
