Has anyone had issues with the magnet closure demagnetizing credit cards? I have experienced this in the past.

This is my second wallet from here & the only issues I've had were the material tearing for my ID cards & credit cards. I haven't experienced that but I flip my magents towards each card so their not facing the the front because I don't want the magnets scratched. I hope this helps &#128522;

I don't usually place anything with magnetic strips, hence any magnetic field can potentially demagnetize credit cards, etc.

I have two cards in mine,and it stays closed just fine...actually you don't even notice the cards are in there.

Hi Billy, I've had no problem. I only have my license and one credit card in each slot for a total of 3 inserts. I keep two bills folded behind the credit card & ID slot. It closes just fine.

I have not had a problem but I do put my cards the way it was shown to insert them with the strip Away from. The magnet

It's possible it will deactivate if you put it in there w/other credit cards - just like any wallet. I have, however, tried sliding it in perpendicular to how it's supposed to go into the phone case so the contact w/my credit card is less, and that has worked. (But of course it's not easy/safe to carry around much w/the hotel key partially sticking out, so I've only done that like if I'm heading down for breakfast or to the fitness room in the hotel.) Sorry that I can't tell you for sure if it deactivates by sticking it all the way in the right way...never been willing to try because I want to avoid having to reactivate the card at the front desk...which I'm guessing you feel the same way since you're asking here instead of trying it out. haha

Hi Leanna! Maureen here from The Friendly Swede:-) The answer is no, it should not affect the integrity of your magnetic strip on your credit cards. I'm also grateful to hear from the other buyers that they have not experienced this issue either. Very informative answers. Anything else, please let me know here at this link:

I actually had the same issue at first, wasn't a big deal for me tho, however it seemed like after I put my cards in the slots it started turning off. Might have been a coincidence tho because since then I tried taking then off and still works so not sure what really fixed it

I carry 1 extra id card in where I keep my cash & only put $20 in there since I use mainly my credit card for purchases. Sometimes I do put $40 & it fits nicely. No problem with the magnet holding it close :D

Good question; but as a happy user of this wallet, there's no risk of damaging your card. The magnet is at the very top, away from the card space, and you'd have to put some effort into trying to actually damage your card for any damage to occur. I've been using this case/wallet since it's launch, and I've yet to damage any of my (8) cards.. I wouldn't put anything at the card opening at the back though, it's a bit too tight. Hope this helps..

That's not a magnetic closure, it basically has a little thing that on the back of the case and u can insert the little flip to close the case. I hope u can understand what I am trying to describe. And since my last case was magnetic closure too, it wouldn't make any damage of the credit card strips :)

Mine is snap on. I believe the earlier versions were magnetized. There is "wallet" on one side for credit cards and it is metal.

In my review I stated there was NO magnetic closure so you should be ok with your cards.

It does have a magnetic closure. It is rather secure when you close it up so you don't have to worry about your credit cards and whatnot falling out.

There is a sticker on the case. It says clearly "do not remove" I really think that the sticker is there to prevent problems like this. The sticker is thick and feels like roughly smooth. It definitely serves a purpose. As for the magnet when closing, I have no problems, but I do have the galaxy s4 not the note 3. I have not had any technical problems with the case. It's filled with cards, this might help prevent that issue. The magnet is strong enough to keep my 7 cards and a good stack of money tightly locked. 5*

I haven't. There is an insert that comes with the case that tells you the best way to insert your credit/debit cards to prevent them from becoming de-magnetized.

I don't use it for credit cards.But the magnet is not very big,so it shouldn't effect it.

I don't understand what the point of the magnetic flap on the cover would be. Perhaps you could offer your thoughts? The magnets are on the casing itself, and the entire outer segment of the cover is a magnet. The cover closes very securely without issue when these two meet.
