Since its a wallet and I'd be keeping my credit cards in it, does the magnetic closure demagnatize the credit card strips?

Nope. The magnet is on the back side of the phone, and it also does not interfere with the phone. It has thick padding between the phone and the magnet and is very safe!

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 :)

The iPhone case attaches to the outer wallet case with a magnet. It is very easy to remove and reattach your phone. Magnet is strong enough that I never had any problem with the iPhone coming off unless I pulled it off. However, the magnet did not demagnetize the credit cards that I carried in the wallet. I have a new iPhone 5 and am totally bummed that I cannot find a version of this case for my new phone.

I haven't had any problems with the magnets in the wallet. Or with the cards rubbing in it.

Magnetic, but if you put about 4 cards + in the case, it won't really stay shut even with the magnet

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 �

Mine is slightly different than the one in the pic but No, just a flap and you wouldn't want a magnet close to your credit card or electronics.

Yes, it has a magnetic strip and I have not had a problem keeping it closed. I carry it in a large bag back and forth to work and it has always stayed closed.

The sleeves are lined with foil. The metal stops data readers from being able to pick up the data off the chip in your credit card. If you want to go on the cheap, you can wrap your credit cards in aluminum foil, but it is a pain in the neck to reinsert your card and refold the aluminum foil around your card every time you use it. The sleeves are clean, you can insert them in slots in your wallet for that purpose and they will last a long time, unlike the aluminum foil.

Good question , I've never put my credit cards in it...not a strong magnet and the case might be thick enough to protect but not sure. It's cute. Maybe someone else knows ?!

I've had this case since March and from the start, I've had my debit/credit cards (and id) tucked inside it. I've never had a problem with demagnetizing yet.

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..

Button closure is magnetic. There is a magnetic in the triangular piece and in the front cover. The magnetic closure is easy to use. I have the 3 card slots occupied with 2 plastic credit cards for total of 6 cards and it still works perfectly. I am very happy with unit.

Hi Lhamokyi, the case won't hold two cards at the same time. If you are referring to whether or not it affects the scan strip of credit cards, no it doesn't affect it at all. I hope this helps :)

I have put my debit card briefly when going out but not on a regular basis. No problem with it when I have done that. It seems like the leather is a barrier to the magnetic clasp (and it is not a super strong magnet clasp either.) Hope this helps and keep everyone posted ? Thanks and hope this helps a little.

Yes, but here is the proof. Sherry is also associate director of the Rogers Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Center and a radiology professor at the university's Southwestern Medical Center. In other words, he's got plenty of magnetic experience for our purposes. He heard us out and politely corrected our assumption about the relationship between the strength of the magnet and its power over the data on the stripe. "The field strength isn't all that important," he said. "Even the refrigerator magnet should work eventually." So what was the deciding factor? Exposure time. "It is well known that magnets will wipe out information on credit card stripes," Sherry said. "However, it doesn't always happen after one exposure. It may take several exposures for the card to be deactivated, but it will happen eventually."
