Paul
received a $96 initial payment.
"The moment when I received my money I felt greatly delighted since it would relieve me from some of my daily expenses (dry maize grain) and enable me to pool(save) an equivalent amount daily for some time for a different need..In addition the sheep I was to buy would be a ''saving'' that I could sell in the near future for additional school fee money for my child."

received a $96 initial payment.
"The moment Transfers were sent, I was attending a burial in the village but did not have my phone, but a friend walked over to me and whispered that GD had just sent transfers. I later went home and checked my phone, only to find that I had also received my transfer. I got overwhelmed with joy, since I had never handled that kind of money in my life before, yet here I was!
