Vacation is one place where we can enjoy ourselves. Unfortunately while trying to relax, many travelers put their guard down and fall prey to theft, pick pockets and identity theft. Pickpocketing is one of the most widespread crimes. Given the efficiency, dexterity and knack for misdirection, most time it is highly unlikely that we are able to feel anything when a professional pickpocket tries to remove our wallet.
Beyond the immediate loss of currency, losing your identity has a longer and more significant impact on ones life. Therefore, this year, in addition to packing sun tan lotion, your passport and that bathing suit, we should consider preparing other essentials which will ensure your vacation is memorable for the right reasons.
As thin as a credit card but able to provide a wide safety net, the Orbit Card provides you with an electronic tether for both your wallet and your smart phone. At the push of a button the Orbit Card will make your phone ring, even on silent mode. And conversely your phone will notify you as soon as your wallet has been absconded. Not only will you be notified, but the pickpocket will be unpleasantly surprised by the built-in 89db speaker.
Installation is simple. Insert the Orbit Card into your wallet. Pair it with the free Orbit app and use your (Android or iOS) phone to find it on demand. To find your wallet, simply tap the app and it will tell you where it is. You may ask how this small device works. The answer is simply the magic of Bluetooth tethering.
What I love about the design of the Orbit Card is how small it is. It looks and feels (at 0.32 oz) like one of your credit cards. Battery life is up to 3 months and the card can be charged via a USB cord (provided). The Orbit Card also doubles as a remote and can be used to take selfies from up to 100ft/30m distance.
And should you get the card wet (or accidentally take it on a swim) don’t fret. The Orbit Card is IPX6 waterproof, which ensures its covers splashes, rain and exposure to water jets.
