  • RFID blocking protects your cards from digital theft

  • The front pocket fit eliminates bulky uncomfortable back-pocket wallets

  • And the 12-card capacity gives you plenty of space without feeling oversized

Add a lifetime warranty, and you’ve got a wallet you buy once and use forever.

These listed features are a rapid-fire set of reasons why this wallet is the best option for you.

Each phrase is short, punchy, and effortless for the viewer to process.

And the best part?

I’m 99% certain this ad uses an AI voiceover.

They repurpose the content they filmed in-house and with other UGC creators, add an AI voiceover with a unique angle, and launch a new ad within 60 minutes.

We love this approach at 10X ROAS and most clients are seeing better overall ad performance with the combination of:

  1. Filming new content with UGC creators

  2. Repurposing their content with AI voiceovers and AI avatars targeting different angles, customer personas, and messaging
