Before you rush to your phone and try requesting for money from anyone please don’t try it if you have an android because this is only currently available for iOS but will also be made available for androids soon enough. I downloaded the app recently and so far its been quite useful not to mention I got 500mb for free as soon as I downloaded it. The signing in into the app is rather easy for starters you don’t need the PIN for every transaction thanks to biometrics integration that allows you to use your fingerprint scanner on Android devices and on older iPhones, and facial recognition on newer iPhones. Who will this payment feature be useful to? This will work perfectly for people are paid via M-Pesa or if someone owes you money they can request for their money using the app. For people who are paid via M-Pesa you will be able to track and see how much money has been paid to you and how much money is remaining to be paid. How will it work? I don’t about you but this sounds rather exciting especially because majority of Kenyans are on M-Pesa and if someone owes you money it would be a polite way of saying “send my money back please”.
