Tony,

I think banks can manage such numbers of agents if they all combine efforts which pesalink is all about.
I find most mpesa agents having multiple other agents. 
If they work on costing and make it as competitive/cheaper than mpesa they can hack the market.

Job, my take on this is that Pesalink will fail, *unless* they get as
many agents out there as Mpesa has.  It is the ability to easily
deposit, and withdraw cash, even in the remotest rural locations, that
made Mpesa successful. As Steve told us this week, Mpesa has 124,000
agents countrywide.

Cheers,
Tony
