Google Find My Device CARD Point Wallet Tracker: $21 at Amazon
You can now purchase the Google Find My Device CARD Point wallet tracker from Chipolo for $21 on Amazon. Prime members get free shipping, and orders over $35 also qualify for free shipping. Regularly priced at $35, this deal offers savings of over 38% and represents the lowest price available, particularly with free Prime shipping.
Consider multi-packs available directly from Chipolo for even greater savings. The 2-pack is priced at $39 (reduced from $70), and the 4-pack is available for $70 (down from $140). This translates to $17.50 per card tracker, among the best prices tracked. Note that shipping is free on orders over $70 directly from Chipolo.
If you need only one tracker, the Amazon deal is the best option if you have a Prime membership. The direct price from Chipolo is the same, but you’ll incur shipping fees.
The CARD Point tracker functions similarly to other wallet trackers, sliding into your wallet like a credit card. It integrates with the Google Find My Device network, enabling location tracking for essential items. It features integrated speakers (105dB audio-based tracking), a water-resistant design, and a 2-year non-replaceable battery.
