As part of the ongoing cooperation, the Chipolo CARD Spot wallet finder, which works exclusively with the Apple Find My network, is available for purchase directly from the Secrid website, together with the wallet of choice.

The partnership between Chipolo and Secrid is built on shared core values: creating products for people; choosing local production to ensure both environmental and manufacturing standards are met; building strong, human-centred teams, in which every person matters.

“Both Chipolo and Secrid originated in Europe, starting with passionate teams with big dreams and big hearts. After years of hard work, dedication and remaining true to ourselves, both teams have managed to build global companies. We love partnering with people and businesses we truly resonate with, and Secrid is definitely one of them, by putting users’ benefits over short term gains and offering high quality, reliable and affordable products with smart designs,” said Primož Zelenšek, CEO and Co-Founder of Chipolo.

Over the years, the two European self-funded and privately-owned companies have grown organically and consistently, becoming international brands in their respective market segments. While 10-year-old Chipolo is now present worldwide, with over 3.5 million Bluetooth trackers sold, Secrid sold over 10 million wallets in around 85 countries since the launch of their Cardprotector back in 2009.

“Our collaboration with Chipolo came to life after years of research, as we wanted to make sure that we found the best tracker to complement the Secrid products – and we did, as the Chipolo CARD Spot is a brilliant add-on to our wallets!” said René van Geer, Co-Founder, CEO & Creative Director at Secrid at Secrid. “We also found a team and a brand that represent the perfect fit for us. We believe that is a key element to keep in mind when partnering with other companies. Having shared values – such as the local production in Europe and brilliant functionality – is an important reason for us to whole-heartedly recommend Chipolo to our customers,” he added.

While the beginnings of the two brands can be traced back to different countries, Chipolo and Secrid are connected by the threads of their origin stories. Chipolo was founded in Trbovlje, Slovenia, by seven high school friends, of which one would always lose his things. They then came out with the solution for this: Chipolo, a tracker that you connect to your phone, which then helps find any of your personal belongings with just a click of a button.

Secrid’s journey, on the other hand, began in Den Haag, Zuid-Holland, The Netherlands, with the designer couple formed by Marianne van Sasse Van Ysselt and René van Geer. To this day, Secrid remains a family-owned business, built on creativity and sustainability, driven by values, and based on a holistic vision where fashion and trends perfectly blend together with industrial design and patented mechanisms.

While Secrid’s compact wallets protect you from NFC/RFID skimming, the Chipolo CARD Spot finder, which lets users add it to the items tab in the Find My app on their iPhone or iPad, makes sure that your wallet is never lost. All you need to do is visit the Secrid website, add your favourite wallet to the shopping bag, add your Chipolo during check-out, then complete your order!
