CandyShell Card Case Turns iPhone into Wallet

Speck’s CandyShell Card protects your iPhone and stores your credit cards

The iPhone 5 may or may not have a near-field communication chip with which to make cashless payments, but why wait to find out anyway? You can add cashless payments to your iPhone 4 today, with Speck’s new CandyShell Card case. It has no high-tech electronics — just a slot which will carry your credit cards.

The hard case covers everything except the screen, and round back there is a rubberized slot which can hold up to three cards. These slide in through an opening in one edge, and at the other side there is a cut-out that lets you push cards out with your thumb.

It’s simple, and it lets you leave your wallet at home. It will also let you sample that feeling of terrified helplessness you get when you lose not just your phone, but all of your money and ID too. Get used to it. If NFC payments take off, losing you phone will be a whole lot more inconvenient than just losing the ability to make calls. $40.
