ESR's HaloLock Geo Wallet Stand has proven a hit on Kickstarter, finishing its campaign with over 36x its original goal in terms of backing. Now, it is available for general sale online. The accessory is hailed as the first of its kind with full support for Apple Find My, thereby potentially boosting the chances of recovering a lost wallet, the iPhone it was mounted on via MagSafe, or both.

ESR has announced that the crowdfunding campaign for its new HaloLock Geo Wallet Stand has come to an end, having smashed a 50,000 Hong Kong dollar (HKD, or ~US$6,380) goal with a final total of 1,838,251 HKD (or just under US$235,000).

The new accessory is a new take on the brand's HaloLock Power Bank Wallet, albeit one with a built-in finger-loop - and real-time location-tracking. ESR asserts that it is the first accessory of its category with both MagSafe and "full Apple-certified Find My" compatibility.

Accordingly, the HaloLock Geo Wallet Stand should be capable of activating Left Behind notifications (with optional audible tones in iOS) and show up in the Find My app, whether it is still on the back of the iPhone in question or not.

As with the Power Bank Wallet, ESR insists that the strength of its in-built HaloLock magnets are even stronger than those of first-party MagSafe, "with a holding force of 1,500 grams (g)". It is now listed on Amazon at a starting price of US$49.99.
