A few days ago I came across someone who has offered something that made me pause and smile. Ever wondered why random acts of kindness go viral on YouTube? It is because everyone wishes to do them but few have the heart to; people live vicariously when they see it, because deep down it is the potential we feel in each of us yet it is the truly remarkable among us who go the extra distance to act on it. Anyone can comment or like, but taking real life action is what truly makes an impact.

So WHAT WAS IT that I saw that filled me with happiness and inspiration? I was speaking with a good friend in Brazil about Claro and Electroneum (ETN). Somewhere during the course of our conversation I was offered the opportunity to test the “TOP UP.” There was no way I was going to refuse that. But what I did not know is this kind invitation would, much to my surprise, turn into an awesome photo op:

I was introduced to “Letícia” who offered to pose for the pictures with Claro and Electroneum side by side. We made several transfers (TOP UPs) while the images were taken. The TOP UP worked flawlessly: it took about 3 seconds for the receiver to get their AIR/DATA and they even received an SMS confirming the TOP UP.
