Plastic cards have a hard time, they get bent and become brittle in your pocket. In particular, RFID/NFC cards are not safely stored in a regular wallet. RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) or NFC (Near Field Communication) cards have a chip and an antenna for wireless communication. These cards, such as credit cards and public transport cards, can be activated, selected and copied from up to many metres away, without you noticing. Secrid works as a firewall in your wallet.
To safely use an RFID/NFC card, you slide it out 3 cm from the Cardprotector; the sensitivity for the radio signal is then substantially reduced, but still sufficient for contact over short distances. By minimising the time duration and signal strength, you remain outside the reach of digital pickpockets.
The Card Protector is the core of the Secrid product line and perfect for those who don't like carrying cash around. The aluminium Card Protector protects your most important cards, both against bending and breaking and against your RFID cards being scanned if you don't want them to be (such as the transportation pass, ID card, the latest credit cards and business cards).
You can store up to six cards in the Cardprotector, including one embossed card. Or up to five cards, three of which with embossing. The Secrid Cardprotector is only 8 mm thick and is a winner of the Red Dot Design Award.
