Just imagine you get kidnapped when using the app or you get robbed, how will the app help you if they don't have these documents of their users? If the NIN of a user is given to the Police, it will make it easier for the police to track a potential criminal who as registered on the app since all the user's information can be gotten through the NIN.

Profile picture and phone number should help not my NIN. I don't trust all this online thing.

I can just go to Facebook and pick anybody picture.
This is not just anyone online business. This is a business that have gone through all the legal processes.

App is a great idea however just like any other business it needs an aggressive advertising ie using a well known celebrity on a very popular cable tv station and it will be the talk of town like bolt.

it's cost 8m to do such advert and it will only run 4 times a month.

Ok

What about the profile pic on your App? Why do you need to go to Facebook?

In a way, I feel this is a slightly bad business idea. I believe that the purpose of this referral program is to get more people to know about your services and consequently pay for your services. To ensure you achieve this, users should not be able to withdraw their credits. Instead, credits should act as a form of discount to users who use the app.

Let me explain better:
When I refer a new user to your platform, I get 3 credits. Now these credits should be used as a discount anytime I want to book a ride. If I want to book a ride that costs 500 naira, I will only pay 200 naira while my 3 credits (which equates to #300) should balance up the payment. This way, the credits remain within the app.

If I can withdraw my credits, you will notice that within a short time, more people will begin to refer people not really because they want others to use your app but because your app is now like a Ponzi scheme where anyone can refer anybody just for the sole purpose of making money. On the long run, you will have many users in your database who don't even use your app but are constantly looking for the next person to refer.

Another policy I feel you should introduce is that one cannot earn credits until the person he or she refers completes at least 1 trip using the app. This way you know that you are actually gaining real users who are contributing to the growth of the business.

To further backup my point, I want you to carry out this simple analysis:
1) After 1 month of running this referral program, check the number of users who have gotten credits from this referral program and check if they have even used the app to book a trip before.
2) Now check those who were referred to see if they have ever used the app to book a trip since they registered.

After these two checks, you will agree with me definitely.

This is just my opinion.

Thank you
