What are N52 magnets and why do they matter?
N52 magnets are the strongest commercially available neodymium magnets. Valenta uses them to ensure that your cardprotector and modular add-ons lock firmly in place and stay there — even in movement or daily use. We focus on using N52 magnets across our MagSafe-compatible products because they're the strongest grade available, offering the most secure and reliable hold possible.
What makes a cardholder fashionable, not just functional?
It’s all in the details: the materials, the finish, the proportions. A Valenta cardprotector is designed not just to carry your cards but to look good doing it — from every angle.
How much weight can the MagSafe magnets hold?
Valenta’s MagSafe cardprotectors are engineered for secure attachment during everyday use. While they’re not made for extreme conditions, the magnets hold up impressively well in real-world scenarios like commuting, pulling your phone from your pocket, or hopping on a bike. That reliability comes from our use of industry-leading N52 neodymium magnets. Despite being just millimeters thin, these magnets deliver one of the highest strength-to-thickness ratios available, allowing your cardprotector — even when loaded with several cards — to stay firmly in place throughout your day.
Can I travel light with just a cardprotector and phone?
Yes — and that’s exactly what Valenta’s Cardprotector Aluminium MagSafe is made for. It magnetically attaches to your iPhone (or compatible MagSafe case), keeping your cards and phone in one compact setup. It’s the minimalist way to carry everything essential — no pockets weighed down with clutter.
Are cardprotectors safe for contactless transit cards?
Yes. Just like with payment cards, they stay protected inside the case. To scan them, simply pop them out with the ejector and use as normal.
Can a cardprotector stop contactless payments from being hijacked?
Yes. Valenta's RFID-blocking cardprotectors prevent unauthorized scanners from activating the contactless chip in your card. While inside the case, your cards remain unreadable. Only when removed for use are they exposed for payment.
Can MagSafe cardholders fall off during biking, running, or commuting?
Well, let's say it takes a lot to shake it off. While it's not made for extreme sports — we have yet to test it during a parachute jump — for normal everyday activities from cycling and public transport to city sprints and coffee runs, you should be just fine thanks to the use of industry leading N52 magnets which make sure that your Cardprotector remains firmly in place.
Can I store IDs and driver’s licenses in a MagSafe cardholder?
Absolutely. Just like your bank cards, standard-sized ID and license cards fit securely in the Valenta cardprotector.
What is a cardprotector and how does it work?
A cardprotector is a compact, slim case designed to store and protect your essential payment, ID, and access cards. At Valenta, our aluminium cardprotectors use a smart ejector mechanism that slides out your cards in a stepwise display, making them instantly accessible. Built-in RFID shielding prevents unauthorized scanning of contactless cards, keeping your personal data secure while you move through daily life.
Are there cardprotectors suited to both men and women?
Absolutely. Valenta cardprotectors are designed to be clean and universal — a balance of simplicity and style that works across genders, outfits, and lifestyles. It’s a smart fashion choice, whether it’s in your blazer or your handbag.
