On this episode of Fintech Insider Insights, in association with Curve, host David Barton-Grimley is joined by a panel of payments and e-wallets experts to tackle the emerging Wallet Wars.

So, we’re delving into the challengers looking to take on Apple and innovate in the wallets space. 

This week's guests:

• Shachar Bialick - Founder and CEO of Curve 

• Tom Noyes - Partner at Starpoint LLP 

• Fliss Berridge - Director and Co-Founder of Ordo
