About our RFID Blocking Products
-
Yes, RFID and NFC blocking products effectively protect against both RFID and NFC threats.
RFID blocking sleeves and cards, create a barrier that prevents unauthorised scanning of your cards. By blocking electromagnetic signals, they can safeguard your sensitive information, including credit card numbers, passport details, and other personal data.
-
RFID blocking cards and sleeves safeguard your sensitive information by preventing various forms of digital theft. They shield against proximity theft, where criminals use handheld readers to skim card data in crowded areas. Additionally, these protective tools thwart shimming devices, malicious overlays on legitimate readers that capture card data unnoticed. Furthermore, they deter data harvesting, where scanners in high-traffic locations collect card data on a large scale.
-
The lifespan of an RFID blocking card or sleeve depends on several factors, including the quality of the materials, the frequency of use, and exposure to wear and tear. Generally our RFID blocking products can last for several years.
However, it's important to inspect your cards and sleeves regularly for signs of damage, such as cracks or tears. If you notice any damage, it's recommended to replace the product to ensure optimal protection.

RFID blocking products primarily work in two ways:
The RFID blocking sleeves are made of a conductive material,(metal or a metal-infused material). They act as a Faraday cage, creating a barrier that blocks electromagnetic fields. When you place your debit, credit, access or ID card inside the sleeve, the electromagnetic field is disrupted, preventing the card from communicating with RFID readers.
RFID blocking cards contain built-in RFID blocking chips. When placed near your existing RFID cards, they emit a stronger signal that interferes with the signal from your cards, making them invisible to RFID readers.By using either of these methods, RFID blocking products effectively protect your sensitive information from unauthorized access.
