Premium Cowhide Leather FREE UK Delivery (Over £20) FREE Personalisation 30 Day Returns Radio-Frequency Identification, or RFID for short, is a technology used across a wide variety of industries ranging from animal identification to telemetry. RFID technology involves matching a transmitted signal between two 'tags' in order to identify or transmit communication/data. In regards to TORRO products, any inclusion of RFID would be focused on the protection of the 'tags' in credit/debit cards in order to prevent unauthorized scanning for a payment on your card, without you realizing. At TORRO, we successfully tested the theory with our chip and pin device and managed to charge a payment card in a rear pocket in a wallet as an experiment (our team was instantly refunded). As a brand founded by two ex-Police detectives many years ago, solving this problem was an issue close to everything we believe in. At TORRO we always say that the difference is in the detail and this is one detail we were keen to add to our range of Bifold wallets. To combat card ‘skimming’ with our Bifold wallets we added a mesh to the outer lining which blocks RFID, meaning any radio signal from a tag attempting to communicate a payment request to a tag on a contactless card would be blocked and not make it to your card, thus blocking the payment. Whether it is the security of your credit cards or the convenience of quick and easy travel, the TORRO design team have a stylish solution for you all made with genuine leather. We have now included RFID blocking technology in more of our premium leather accessories.
