    Do you just have to remember to grab things whenever you go out? I can use my phone for most payments, but not everything. There’s several things I need regularly in my wallet: driver’s license, some cash, credit card, health insurance card, work ID (doors have scanners), punch cards for our local taco, boba, and ice cream place, grocery store/cvs discount card, and some other things I use less often. If I only had one of those phone cases, I could bring like 3 of the cards, but then my phone would be even bigger in my pocket.

      The only card I have that I need to take with me is my work pass. Everything else is on my phone, debit and credit cards, train card, loyalty cards. I haven’t needed a physical card for anything other than work since COVID.

      I can use my phone for literally all payments. Even kids selling lemonade on the side of the street.

      We have digital driver’s licenses, health insurance is just tied to your person.

      I bring my lanyard with access card to the office though

        Well here in America we’re living in the past. But how do kids have credit card scanners!? I’ve been to Europe several times and the tap scanners are definitely everywhere though, very convenient.

          They don’t. They use like a service provided by banks, think cashapp but everyone has it
