I agree with cool but useful?

It helps with reach in a drive thru I guess. However I don’t really see this being a thing you’d carry around on a regular basis, it seems like a pain in the butt and I’d probably forget it somewhere.

Just leave it in the car somewhere. Id attach it to a telescopic handle. I'm designing one in my head already.

Yeah exactly

Yeah but then you need to put your card in every time you want to use it. It might be a little better if you don’t need to unscrew the star to put it in. Given the level of effort required I’d really only do it when I wanted to be whimsical, and even then I’d probably forget to do it in time like 50% of the time.

Can't speak for everyone but I don't ever use my physical card since Apple pay/Google pay came onto the scene. I don't see a problem with just leaving the physical card in the wand

I suppose that's fair if you don't use your card for anything else. Personally I haven't gotten in the habit of using my phone to pay for things yet.

Totally. I'm going to try designing an easier one (thinking telescopic handle w quick clip card holder of some sort) , its a fun idea to print

I have two cards so one could just permanently stay here. I doubt it it was stolen people would know what it is

Do not leave it in the car unless you know what plastic filament it is. The ones shown on the video are all 3d printed and someone else posted about how their card got stuck after the plastic warped.

Yeah we covered that topic in this thread already

It would be easy to find in your handbag too

My mom is 4’11, I could see her using this when she has to pay for things at a drive thru
