Prevent credit card fraud while you adventure.

Whether you know it or not, there's RFID technology everywhere — and it might even be in your pocket, wallet or purse right now. RFID chips, like most tech, were designed for convenience: they could be in your credit cards for easily scanning your payment, in U.S. passports for tracking your photo and personal information, or metro cards for quick swiping. 

Unfortunately, RFID cards can be easily picked up by scammers and thieves: they use tiny electromagnetic fields to operate, so you don't actually need to “initiate” communications to use them. All you technically need is proximity — meaning it's totally possible to have someone walk up to you, scan your wallet and use your credit card without you ever being the wiser. 

Luckily, there's means of preventing that from happening — they're called RFID-blocking wallets, meaning your cards won't get scanned unless you take them out from the wallet for deliberate use. Check out our four favorites below:
