Bitesize Payments
Payments are one of things that we do every day - they just happen, really they are just like magic!!!! But we don't wake up and think today I want to make a payment - we just want to pay a bill or buy a coffee but payments make them happen.
Paradoxically we both know more about them than we think and yet at the same time very little about what they are and how they work.
I have spent a lot of time in our industry doing education and training sessions on Payments and I kinda thought it would be useful to record it. So, here we go.... In Bitesize Payments I try and explain the History of Payments, how they work and who does what. Also who get paid for what....that might surprise you!
Anyway hopefully in less than 20 mins, week after week you can become a payment experts....... or at the very least someone who can ask the tough questions :-)
Please let me have your feedback, input or question at bitesizepayments@gmail.com
Thanks for listening.......

Fraud and Scams - The dark underbelly of Payments
Welcome back to Bitesize Payments, in today's episode we dive into the murky waters of payment fraud and scams. From ancient swindlers to modern-day cybercriminals, we're charting the course of deceptive practices that have evolved alongside our financial systems.
Fraud is a personal and often distressing experience, and while we won't dwell on the emotional aspects, it's important to recognise its impact.
Our story begins in ancient civilisations, where currency first sparked opportunistic deceit. Recall the bustling marketplaces of Lydia, the cradle of coinage we discussed in episode one, where fraudsters first exchanged counterfeit coins for genuine ones, setting the stage for an enduring struggle between trust and deception.
So, let's set sail on this journey through time and technology and the dark underbelly of payments.
