A computer-implemented system and method for performing social network secure transactions is provided. A message with a hashtag associated with a recipient of payment and payment information including at least a payment source for a payment from a payor to a recipient is received. The message is intercepted from the social network platform for transfer to a separate payment platform. The payment information of the payor is validated and the recipient associated with the hashtag is identified using the list of recipients. The payment information is processed on behalf of the recipient associated with the hashtag using the payment source in the message from the payor.
