Wallor Wearables started a campaign on Kickstarter called Wallor 2.0, and this is a wallet that can be tracked through your smartphones.
The Wallor 2.0 is a wallet made of genuine Nappa leather that is integrated with a tracking device, allowing you to keep track of your wallet’s whereabouts. It has Real-Time Global GPS tracking and RFID protection, in addition to the detachable power bank that supports wireless charging.

To understand how the wallet works, you’ll need to know a few things. The wallet has a tracker that is embedded with a eSIM which provides GPS coverage. For the first two years, users will get free data plan but from then onwards, it’ll cost $1 per month.

When your wallet is too far away from you, you will be notified on your smartphone through the Wallor app that is available for both App Store and Play Store. You can set the range to be of 5m, 10m or 50m and once out of the safety range, your wallet or other items will be disconnected and you’ll be notified with their last known location and the exact time they were disconnected. Now the other items that can be tracked include your credit cards, your passport and your driving license, whereby you can stick the tracking tags on these items, pair them to your wallet and connect to the Wallor app. When these items (including your wallet) are within safety range, you can actually use AR (Augmented Reality) feature to scan your room and find the exact location of your valuables. These tracking tags are battery free, unlike your wallet that needs to be charged.

Now the Wallor 2.0 has battery life that last up to 20-30 days, and only requires an hour to fully charge with its fast-charging wireless charger. The wireless charger can also charge your devices and for those smartphones that does not support wireless charging, purchasing the Qi receiver for an additional price of $15 will instantly allow the wireless charging feature. You’ll also be notified when your wallet has low battery, which serves as a reminder to charge your wallet or to be exact, the tracking device in it. You can also find where your phone is through the Wallor 2.0, as its logo is actually a hidden button that will cause your phone to ring when pressed, even if it’s on silent mode. This is especially useful when someone took your phone without your permission or when you just cannot remember where you left your phone.
The Wallor 2.0 comes in 4 different versions, which are the Bifold Vertical Wallet, the Bifold Horizontal Wallet, the CardHolder Split Wallet and the Travel Wallet. The detachable power banks comes in three sizes to fit the different wallet versions, whereby the CardHolder power bank is 90mm x 60mm with 1,500mAh battery, the Bifold power bank is 100mm x 80 mm with 2,500mAh battery and the Travel power bank is 120mm x 85mm with 4,000mAh battery. You can pledge for the Wallor 2.0 from $109 whereas the Wallor 2.0 Basic can be pledged from $59.
