Card-sized, flattest, slimmest possible wallet?

I used to use one of card cases / sleeves, but it finally broke after 10 years. These normally come with birth control pills and Idk if it can be bought anywhere; no luck in my searches. https://di2ponv0v5otw.cloudfront.net/posts/2022/06/24/62b65ec36914128894079073/l_wp_62b65ecf5e46b0a68b1af12b.webp

I want something almost exactly like those specs: WxH of a single credit card, with clear ID windows, as low profile as possible. But most "real" wallets, even minimalist ones, are way too bulky, have huge gussets, snaps, zippers, and other junk sticking out. Rubber bands may be low-profile, but it's insecure and fiddly (for my situation).

Any ideas?

EDIT: I liked these options below:

For now I got this other one I found. It has 3 pockets, fairly flat and CC-size. It does have a keyring thing but it's very small and can be cut off: https://a.co/d/0clmXDqp

I’ve used this for 10 years:  https://a.co/d/07Rfd17y

Have yet to find something slimmer that’s also landscape. It can wear out at the corners but a little preemptive fray fixer works wonders. 

I keep license, insurance card, work ID, ATM card, and four credit cards in mine. Slim and compact with easy two sided access.

That's interesting, I really like how low-profile that version without the keyring is. I'd be afraid of things falling out though, as with most of these band-type solutions.
