The money transfer is important because customer work so easy,efficient receiving n depositing money and fast,paying bills like rent,electricity,water becomes convenient without any hustle. Accessory are important especially chargers,earphones, phones battery(phone)usb cable, communication becomes easy. For security reason l do sell padlock that would secure customers house.
