3 KEY THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE UNBOXING

You’re now (almost) the proud owner of an Ekster wallet. Get ready to speed up your day, every day. Here are a few things you should know to help you start your journey with us.

1. THE STORAGE

Keep it minimal. Carry only what you need on a daily basis:

  1. Pick out the six cards you use most.
  2. Take your new Ekster. Slot those cards into the wallet.
  3. Pro-tip: you might be searching for the cardholder, but don’t worry! It’s the slot on top of the wallet. Slide your cards inside it to see the magic happen.
  4. Depending on how many of your cards are embossed, you’ll fit four to six in it. Then, press the trigger to see your cards fan out.
  5. You’re not done yet! Pick out three more cards. Open the wallet. You’ll find space to tuck in these cards inside. Got a tracker? Great! Put it in the back pocket of your Ekster.

You’ll be able to fit around ten to twelve cards in the wallet, plus a couple more if you don’t have a tracker card. You’ll also find a cash strap for those occasional bills (looking at you, venues that don’t accept card). What about coins, you say? Put them in your piggy bank ;)


2. THE TRACKER

Make it unlosable:

  1. Take your tracker and double-tap the Ekster logo.
  2. Take your phone and download the Chipolo app.
  3. Turn Bluetooth on. Open the Chipolo app and tap the + to add your Ekster.
  4. Find Ekster in Partner Products, and follow the instructions.
  5. Your tracker’s now paired with your phone. Tuck it into the back of your wallet. All done.

Now you can ring your tracker from the app, or use the tracker to ring your phone by holding the Ekster logo down. Feeling lazy? Connect it with Google Home or Alexa, so you can call your wallet with your voice. Want to show it off a little? Use our tracker to take a selfie through the app!


3. THE LEATHER

You’ll notice that the leather appears stiff at first, which is totally normal! The flap will probably not lie flush against the wallet at first, which is also okay. Within the first two weeks of usage, you’ll notice the leather softening and ageing. This will help the wallet to close properly while perfecting the sleek, minimal profile that’s become an Ekster trademark.

Love it!

I am absolutely in love with this card holder. I also purchased the money clip accessory. So all my cards, my cash and identification is all very organized and in one place!

Great quality, easy to carry

Not much to say other than the title. It does exactly what a regular wallet does but better in just about every way. Unless you're someone who actually likes carrying around 30 credit cards for some reason, you should buy this wallet. You won't regret it.

Durable and looks good

East to use, not even a scratch after a few weeks of use. The money clip could be just a bit looser. It's difficult to get the money in, but it's definitely secure!

It saved me a few times already

I work as a security guard and I am almost always on the run: sometimes i leave my wallet in the car, sometimes i drop it somewhere. I can safely say that the tracker has helped me a lot so far.

No Better Cardholder

The Cardholder Pro is easily the best cardholder I've ever owned. I've tried Ridge, CODE 118, Groove, and other Ekster cardholders. The Cardholder Pro is the best by far. The spring and metal card ejector make a VERY satisfying sound when deploying your cards, the function of the card ejector is flawless, the silicone band for the backplate keeps everything VERY secure without making it too difficult to get things in and out, and the storage capacity is unmatched. Then, with the Lifetime Warranty, you really can't go wrong with this one.

Good quality & satisfying purchase

Good quality. Really enjoys the moments of fanning out the card, quite satisfying. Both the tracker card and the key tracker works pretty well and had saved me a couple of times already. Recommended!

Was always a bit unsure about wallets like this BUT I’ve ver glad to say that those worries were not needed! This thing is built REALLY REALLY well!!
Trigger is great and works better than I thought it would (plus it’s neat and fun to mess around with).
