QUESTIONS & ANSWERS
What’s so special about Money-band vs. a "regular" rubber band?
The short answer is size. The diameter, width and materials are different. Money-bands are custom manufactured to a special diameter and width that's ideal for keeping your cards and cash tight. Regular (office supply) variety rubber bands are too big to hold your cash and cards securely once around. And when they’re doubled-up, regular rubber bands aren't flexible and don't handle easily enough for daily use. Our bands are made with only the highest quality rubber band you can make and cut to precise sizes.
What’s wrong with my current wallet?
Guys who have switched said leather wallets are too bulky and can, worst case, cause some chriopratic issues. If you're like me, you're just looking to keep things simple. Another reason is if your're an avid cyclist, climber, runner, and need to bring the bare essentials (like a card and some cash) and leave your whole set up at home, money-band is the simplest way to go. It's also a perfect solution for those wanting to carry their wallet in their front pocket, for security or convenience.
Can I sell money-band in my store?
Absolutely, Men's apparel, bike stores, running shoe stores, outdoor specialty stores are all ideal places to sell money-band. We have a retailer's program that includes quantity discounts and product packaging/displays. To inquire, click here.
Do you have any other colors?
In the future, we may offer more than just one color. We've carried black in the past, and may try other colors. If you're really interested in your own quantity of custom money-band, check our our custom product here. Or let us know what color you'd like to see offered retail.
How long do they last?
Rubber bands, unfortunately, have a limited life. Exposure to heat, air, sunlight and other elements can contribute to rubber bands becoming brittle or weak. Our high-quality grade rubber, under average daily use, lasts about 6 months. Our own observations and reports from customers range from several months to over a year.
What if I can’t relate once I’ve tried Money-band?
For that person who partakes in the Money-band experience and just can’t get behind it...we’ll refund your money.
Hey, did you change the site?
Yep, thanks for noticing. ; ) We changed it in late June 2008 in support of the the updated product design and to enable the launch of our custom and wholesale offerings. If you've ordered from us prior to July 2008, note that our product offering has been upgraded and pricing has changed. If you ordered from us in 2009, we have recently gone back to Black bands from Green.
You changed the product?
Yep, it's wider than our prior version and some minor tweaks to the thickness (1/64") and legnth (approx. 1/16"). I realize this sounds kinda silly, but it makes a big difference in how perfectly it fits your cash and cards while being the right elasticity to be user friendly.
