Paying for things has never been more convenient. Gone are the days when it’s cash or bust, now you can pay with cards, phones and even watches! While having all of this flexibility is undoubtedly a positive thing, imagine having to acclimatise to this modern world with no experience of it. This is the situation being faced by people leaving prison up and down the country. 

With this in mind, we have invited Laura from Lloyd’s academy back on to the show to cover off all of the different options for buying goods or services, looking at the features, advantages and benefits of each.
