Every time a banking app is opened to check a balance or move money, something significant is being placed in the bank's hands, personal financial information, and trust.

It costs them half a day's wage to stand in a queue, a taxi fare to reach an agent, two or three modes of transport to reach a distribution point, and a neighbour trusted with cash because there was no other way to send it.
