M-commerce and mobile payments are terms that can mean several different things - from money transfers to NFC wallets, and from online purchases to credit card readers.

In this special podcast we learn more about the subject by talking to Tim Green, editor-in-chief of Mobile Money Revolution.

The programme has been produced as part of the #needtoknowmobile series in partnership with The Mobile Academy, which is hosted by Mobile Monday London and UCL.
