To ensure cards are carried in accordance with instruction follow these instructions. We cannot be held responsible in the event of any skimming/accidental payment if you do not carry the shields in the correct manner. Duty of proof remains with you.

Carrying to Protect

You can use your VB Card Shield to protect other contactless payment cards that you may hold, should you choose to do so. In your purse or wallet we recommend you gather your payment cards together in one section directly behind one another, up to a maximum of 3. You should then place your VB Card Shield on top/in front of them allowing it to shield the cards.

If you want to carry each card separately in its own slot/section then you will need a VB Card Shield for each of the cards in each slot.[/

How to use Chipolo?

In order to unlock the full potential of your Chipolo we recommend running Bluetooth 24/7. This way your Chipolo app can always save the last known location of your valuable. Meaning, that if you would lose your valuables and open the Chipolo app, you can easily find your Chipolo back with the app as it saved the location where you have last seen it. Simply go to that location, open the Chipolo app and wait for the Chipolo to reconnect. Now ring the Chipolo and you have found back your item!
