You need to keep some factors in mind while buying a money belt which is given below:
1. SIZE
The size should be accurate to put your passports, travel tickets, keys, cards and cash in it. You surely don’t want it too large to be uncomfortable or too small for the objects to fit in. Always remember to check the dimensions first and the design must have multiple compartments for more convenience.
2. MATERIAL
After checking out the size, you should focus on the material. Do you want a travel pouch that is made of a material which will not last long? Definitely not. Thus, we would recommend you to avoid leather. Remember, traveling surely does not exclude drizzly trips or damped regions.

4. TYPE

* Safety Side Releases Buckle – designed specifically for situations when a two handed release is preferred. They have a 3 point release making the application harder to open. Ideal for the military, PPE, medical applications and against thieves.

* Secret Cash Compartment – Depending on the type of money belt, a fair amount of currency and/or folded documents can be placed into the zippered compartment of the belt, which most times depends on the length of the zippered money belt compartment.
* RFID Electronic Pickpocketing – RFID chips are becoming a part of our lives. RFID stands for Radio Frequency Identification Devices and they are tiny passive radio transmitters that are placed in products to prevent theft and are now in identification cards, credit cards, and passports to speed up transactions. These passive transmitters lie dormant until activated by a nearby RFID reader that sends a strong radio current that powers them on and makes them send out their signal.
With the advent of this new technology, a new version of wallet theft is facing travelers today – it’s called RFID Electronic Pickpocketing. Credit card companies are beginning to install RFID chips in new credit cards which emits your card’s account number, expiration date and other information.
That’s where electronic pickpocketing comes into play. In order to stop thieves from using a simple handheld device and passing it over your purse or wallet in your back pocket and capturing your credit card’s information, new wallets and purses feature built-in RFID blocking technology which can stop this new form of ID theft from your wallet or purse. You can find several types of RFID blocking wallets.
