JOURNEY, a consumer and lifestyle electronics brand with a growing wallet range, said LOC8 VERSA Wallet Universal is designed to safeguard a wider world of wallet carriers’ valuables against loss and misplacement.
A spokesperson for JOURNEY said LOC8 VERSA Universal is an antidote to the anxiety of a missing or lost wallet.
“A missing or lost wallet, and its items, is an obvious cause of anxiety – and a common one.
“LOC8 VERSA Universal is an antidote to that.
“And now, more phone users than ever can take advantage of this innovative solution.”
A trackable wallet minimalists carry to keep essentials secure and organised, and to stand their phone.

DID YOU KNOW?
- JOURNEY’s signature money clip debuts in later models of JOURNEY’s wallet range.
- The money clip was developed after customer feedback highlighting that many wallet carriers still like to carry some cash.
- The money clip is an unobtrusive feature that equips minimalist wallet carriers for cash-only moments.
- LOC8 Universal MagSafe Money Clip Wallet and Stand helps modern wallet carriers navigate the line between physical and digital transactions.
LOC8 VERSA Universal features a variety of characteristics synonymous with the quintessential smart wallet, including quick card access, tracking technology, RFID skimming protection, and minimalist design.
Phone users can quickly find LOC8 VERSA Universal by tapping the Find My (Apple) or Find Hub (Google) app on their phone.
Both iPhone (Find My) and Android phone (Find Hub) apps feature a one-tap ‘Play Sound’ feature to activate their wallets’ ringtone in earshot, when their wallet isn’t visible; further away, carriers of a LOC8 VERSA Wallet Universal can spot their wallet on their app’s map.
Wallet carriers can also set separation alerts on their phone, so they receive reminder notifications before they get too far without remembering to bring their wallet with them.
LOC8 VERSA’s leather is durable, but makes for a style accessory that patinas beautifully too.
JOURNEY said this is a blessing in many scenarios.
“If you’ve ever forgotten your wallet on the way out the door during morning rush hour, LOC8 VERSA Universal is a simple solution.
“Likewise, if you’ve ever worried about what would happen if you left a busy place like a bus or cafe without your wallet, this wallet averts these headaches.”
During morning rush hour at home, phone users can hear LOC8 VERSA Universal before they see it.
The slim smart wallet includes an inbuilt USB-C port for recharging, Nappa leather, discrete money clip, and 100dB inbuilt speaker volume.
It retains popular hallmarks of JOURNEY’s wider trackable wallet series, including pocket space for essential cards (five), little and lightweight build, and MagSafe-compatibility for landscape and portrait phone display.
Powerful magnets (MagSafe-compatible) keep your gear secure when it’s time to grab and go.
JOURNEY’s spokesperson said its designers wanted LOC8 VERSA Universal to combine classic wallet design with technological innovations that keep wallets secure, organised, and practical.
“People still carry wallets, but wallets have evolved as transactions have become increasingly digital.
“It was paramount for us to make a wallet that was relevant to the needs of the modern wallet user.”
LOC8 VERSA Universal will be on sale in the United States, Canada, United Kingdom, Europe, and Australia.
