TapShield sells RFID-blocking card sleeves designed to add a simple physical layer around contactless debit and credit cards.

TapShield sleeves are intended to provide an added RFID-blocking privacy layer. They do not replace bank fraud protection, account monitoring, card alerts, safe payment habits, or any security services provided by your financial institution.
We reserve the right to update, change, or discontinue products at any time without notice.
