You must set 

<transport clientCredentialType="Certificate" />

in your service conf, to tell WCF that the crendential are provided by a client certificate.

and set the messageEncoding="Mtom"

<wsHttpBinding>
 <binding name="wshttpconfig" messageEncoding="Mtom">
           <readerQuotas maxArrayLength="64000" />
            <security mode="Transport">
             <transport clientCredentialType="Certificate" />
           </security>
 </binding>
</wsHttpBinding>
