Has anyone been able to figure out how many cards the iPhone Leather Wallet with MagSafe takes?
 
just from eyeing it, i wouldn't think no more than 3 and thats a SNUG 3

I suspect zero since I am sure the magnets will kill magnetic strips.

Apple says its shielded and your cards are not going to be demagnetized.

As most people have chip cards now, even if it wasn't it wouldn't be an issue...unless your stuck with a card from the early 2000's (get a new card...and a new account number...ASAP:oops:)

PS: Grammarly is slipping today
 
following, as I have the same question! I don't understand why this detail isn't included in the product description!
 
total money grab by Apple. $59 for a piece of leather and magnet. They added a magnet to the phone so why not make a wallet w/ magnet that is more or less impractical (hold 1 card and a drivers license).

While I do wish it was cheaper, being able to hold 2-3 cards isn’t bad for an on-the-go option when you don’t want to carry much. I could see having one to throw my ID and a credit card in there when I know I’m not going to need my full wallet.
 
I got one I will return if it sucks.

This 💯.
2020 is the year of easy returns. Don't know what size you are? order them all and send the wrong sizes back.
Don't know what color iPhone you want? Order all of them and take the ones you don't want back 🤷‍♂️
Do I like the clear MagSafe case and wallet? I don't know, but I do know how to find out. Its like browsing...but at home, as long as you take the stuff back...and don't forget about that return window

Very sad turn shopping has taken. Amazon and it’s supporters are major culprits but the blame must be shared.

I ordered. Have a ridge wallet which I love but wanted to test this to simplify things. Only ever use a few cards. So if I can fit 4 cards or so, may be worth it.
 
So, was there an answer to the original question? Looking to buy one want to fit 3 cards

One Citibank credit card. One drivers license. One conceal carry license. One $20 dollar bill.

All above in wallet. Easy to a access.

Three max. Also recommend facing two cards with raised digits together, one upside down with flat back against the front of the wallet. Otherwise you get an ugly asymmetric raised bump where the digits push on the inside.
