What credit card companies are issuing RFID enabled cards? How do i
know if i have one already?
All of the major
credit card companies are:
•
American Express ExpressPay
• Visa
PayWave
•
Mastercard PayPass
• Your
new Drivers License: REAL ID Act of 2005
You can tell if
you already have an RFID card by simply looking for one
of the above logos on your credit/debit cards (for example, look for
the "PayPass" logo on your card)
Does
the Flipside Wallet hold Foreign bank notes from Canada or UK?
Not exactly. The
Flipside Wallet was designed to hold U.S. bank notes as displayed in
the pictures. However, all of our International customers buy the
wallet because they don't carry many bills, and they simply
"double-fold" thier bills into the cash slot of the wallet. It all
depends on how much paper currency you carry around with your cards.
I
carry an RFID Subway pass in my wallet and like to wave the whole
wallet
by the sensor, to quickly pay and get on the train. Can I still do this
with the Flipside Wallet?
YES you can! The
"card side" of the wallet is RFID shielded, but the "cash side" is not.
Simply put your RFID subway or buspass into the cash slot behind all of
your cash, and wave the back of the wallet by the sensor to activate
it.
I
don't think I have any
RFID enabled credit cards. Can I still use this wallet for my stuff?
Absolutely! The
Flipside Wallet™ is still a wallet for all
your cards, cash, pictures, receipts, etc. The RFID shielding
protection is there if you ever need it.
What
is the Flipside
Wallet™ made out of?
The outer shell
of the wallet is made from a very durable grade of
Polypropylene plastic. It has strength and rigidity similar to ABS, but
also has the flexibility and stress-cracking resistance of
polypropylene. The interior card, cash, and photo compartments are made
from a combination of polypropylene, polyethylene, and aluminum alloy
components. All of these materials are recyclable.
How
much can the Flipside
Wallet™ hold?
The Flipside
Wallet™ can hold up to 15 cash bills in the cash
compartment, 6 credit/I.D. cards (3 in each card slot), and
pictures of maximum size 3 1/4" X 2 1/8." If you do not wish to carry
pictures around with you, you can fit another single card into the
picture slot (bringing the total card capacity to 7 cards). The picture
slot also makes a good place for thinner cards like bus passes, and the
like. Check out our features
section to
learn more about the specific features of the
wallet.
Do
I carry this wallet in
my front or back pocket?
The Flipside
Wallet™ was intended to be carried in your front
pocket. Though we don't recommend it, people carry it in their back
pocket anyways. The slim,
compact shape and rounded edges allow the wallet to be comfortably
carried in your pocket. In fact, one could compare it to carrying a
cell phone in your pocket.
I
know I can carry cash,
cards, and pictures in the wallet, but what
about loose change?
This is a
question we get a lot. We never intended for the Flipside
Wallet™ to carry change, because we believe change inside a
standard wallet can be cumbersome, heavy, and even destructive because
it causes wallets to bulk up, stretch and tear. HOWEVER, we have found
that more and more people are securely carrying small amounts of loose
change inside the cash compartment of the Flipside Wallet. So if you
are carrying just a few coins, bus tokens, or the like, yes--you can
carry a small amount of change!
