Rose received a $97 initial payment.
"It was very early in the morning, I had just woken up and rushed to a neighbour to claim for a debt she owed me that would help me purchase a sachet of sugar for that morning's breakfast. As I waited outside her house for the door to be opened, a notification was sent via my cell phone, which I happened to have carried with me, confirming the receipt of my transfer. Honestly, I didn't bother waiting for the debtor to come out but instead rushed to a nearby shopping center where I withdrew the whole amount. It was such a memorable moment in life."
