Money Belts for Savvy Travellers (RFID-Safe, Slim)
Money Belts for Savvy Travellers (RFID-Safe, Slim)
Travel like you mean it. When you’re hopping metros in Tokyo, wandering night markets in Bangkok or navigating tight layovers in Dubai, a good money belt keeps the essentials close and invisible. Our curated range is slim under shirts, comfortable in heat and built for real-world use — cash, cards, passport, boarding passes — without the bulk. Pack it once and forget it’s there. Want to streamline the whole setup? See our carry-on packing tips on the Travel Tips hub: https://www.travelgear.com.au/blogs/travel-tips (and pair your belt with Packing Cubes here: https://www.travelgear.com.au/collections/packing-cubes).
Why Money Belts Matter for Real-World Travel
• Low-profile security: Conceals cash and passports under clothing, reducing pickpocket risk in crowded cities. • RFID-safe options: Extra protection for contactless cards and ePassports. • All-day comfort: Breathable backing and soft straps for long sightseeing days and red-eyes. • Organisation that pays off: Separate sleeves for passport, notes and cards = faster at check-in and hotel desks. • Weather-smart designs: Sweat-resistant and quick-dry materials keep gear comfortable in Aussie summers and humid climates.

• Fit & comfort: Look for breathable mesh backings and smooth seams. • Capacity: Passport + notes + 2–3 cards is the sweet spot for most travellers. • RFID lining: Helpful for contactless cards; keep it lightweight. • Moisture handling: Quick-dry fabrics matter in heat/humidity. • Adjustability: Low-profile buckles that won’t print under clothing. • Warranty & support: Buy once, use on every trip.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are money belts allowed through airport security? Yes, but you may be asked to remove and screen it separately. Keep metal items to a minimum and follow staff instructions. For general travel guidance, see Smartraveller: https://www.smartraveller.gov.au
Do I still need RFID protection? RFID-safe linings add another layer for contactless cards and ePassports. They’re lightweight and don’t add bulk — a smart upgrade for busy urban travel.
Where should I wear a money belt? Front torso, under a shirt or light layer. Adjust so it sits flat against your body; avoid over-stuffing to keep it invisible.
What fits in a typical money belt? Passport, folded notes, 2–3 cards and a boarding pass. Keep coins and bulky items in your daypack.
Will it be comfortable in hot weather? Choose breathable, quick-dry fabrics and avoid overfilling. Many travellers wear the belt over a singlet to minimise sweat.
