The Best is Yet to Come!!! 

SAFE WALLET  

Future Roadmap Preview

Introducing 

SAFE WALLET ULTRA 

This article offers a fascinating preview into the future roadmap for the BulletTrain SAFE Wallet. BulletTrain is renowned for its beloved Minimalist SAFE WALLET cases for iPhone, but decided to stop making them as iPhone cases for current models, and instead replace them with an even more innovative model know as the BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA. The ULTRA is the ultimate SAFE WALLET in every way, and it includes Magsafe and Find My features.

Below is a preview that shows features of the new ULTRA, which will work with any Magsafe iPhone, or Magsafe compatible case.

The ULTRA holds five plastic cards inside its hollow core wallet door, along with one case bill try-folded, as pictured below. ULTRA also features a new ID tray on the left side that can hold any plastic card securely.

There will be two versions of the BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA. The base model which is expected to to sell for $99 will include Apple Magsafe magnets, and there will also be an almost identical version that incorporates Apple 'Find My' technology, so you can't lose your SAFE WALLET ULTRA (Pictured below), and this is expected to retail for $149. The 'Find My' module functionally and components are built into the backplate of the Ultra, which has zero effect on the thickness. It allow you to easily find your BulletTrain SAFE Wallet anywhere and will allow you to make your ULTRA wallet ring so you can find it.

Get the Skinny on ULTRA SKINS

The all-new BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA will made from indestructible TPU, and come in multiple colors, and will also be skippable. The image below are for illustration purposes only, but BulletTrain is preparing a Skin store which will over many cool looking skins.

The 2026 BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA is pictured below on the left and on the right which is largely based upon our original 2017 BulletTrain SAFE Wallet MINI, which we still sell. The MINI is made from polycarbonate, which is hard plastic, and the new ULTRA will be made from TPU which is a little softer, and unbreakable. Just so you understand and don't get confused, all the photos in this story feature our BulletTrain SAFE Wallet MINI, or an early BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA prototype that essentially has been retrofitted with a Magsafe Magnet array on it's back.

The image below compares and contrasts our upcoming BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA with our BulletTrain SAFE Wallet MINI which we came out with in 2017 as a solution for Android users who wanted our SAFE WALLET functionality. It just so happens, our BulletTrain SAFE Wallet MINI also works great with many different diverse iPhone cases.

Below we see a Magsafe BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA prototype riding piggyback on the back of the dbrand Grip case, which looks really great. I have been testing prototypes with different cases, and despite the fact the dbrand Grip case looks great, it is not very well designed and I would NOT recommend it.

Below we see my everyday carry setup which features a BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA Magsafe prototype along with a super low profile OhSnap Grip 5 pop socket on a Spigen Thin Fit case for iPhone 17 Pro Max, which is a really great case.

BulletTrain SAFE Wallet MINI

Below we see photos of a BulletTrain SAFE Wallet MINI on the back of a Spigen Thin Fit case. This first photo shows the built in MagicStand feature that holds up the iPhone case in portrait.

Next we see two images that show the iPhone 17 PRO MAX in a Black Spigen Think Fit case, with a BulletTrain SAFE Wallet MINI attached to the back, and the built-in MagicStand allows the user to rotate the iPhone from portrait to landscape instantly. 

The way the MagicStand feature works, is the user simply pulls their stack of 5 plastic cards out of the hollow core wallet door by a quarter inch or more, at in automatically locks out the landscape stand.

Below we see an iPhone 17 PRO MAX in Cosmic Orange in a clear Spigen case, along with a BulletTrain SAFE Wallet MINI on back. We still sell this BulletTrain SAFE Wallet MINI model, and although it was originally designed as an alternative for Android users, it works great riding piggyback on the back of an iPhone case. The MINI attached to the back of the Spigen clear case using microsuction, and takes only a few seconds to install. Once installed it will stay of indefinitely so long as you don't keep removing it and putting it back on. The user can charge their iPhone 17 Pro Max using USB-C, or with Magsafe wireless charging so long as they remove their phone from the Spigen case, in order to charge it wirelessly.

Notice the Quick Disconnect attached to the bottom of the Spigen iPhone 17 Pro Max case pictured above. This make it compatible with our SAFE PURSE straps and SAFE LEASH lanyard straps. I am an avid snowboarder, and our SAFE LEASH is invaluable for securing your iPhone while using on a Chairlift.

I don't want to overshare, but out new ULTRA will come standard with MagSafe and silicone padding on the back which will secure it perfectly to the back of a high quality Magsafe phone case, which will work perfectly for everyday life. 

For customers who need a failsafe method of attachment with their ULTRA we will offer a VHB kit accessory, which fill basically crazy glue our ULTRA to the back of most iPhone cases, so it can't fall off. 

The BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA will also be the best and skinniest freestanding minimalist wallet, and with our special micorscution kit will be able to hold 6 cards internally, and two cards on the outside, for a total of 8 cards, as illustrated below.

The standard BulletTrain SAFE Wallet MINI and ULTRA models can safely semi-permanently attach any plastic card to their outside door, as pictured below where we see an Tesla NFC Key Card attached to the back of a BulletTrain SAFE Wallet MINI. If the user were to use the ULTRA or MINI without attaching it to a phone, they could use our microsuciton kit accessory on both sides, to hold a total of 8 cards.

For the ladies—or dudes that look like ladies—we will be offering our SAFE PURSE Straps as pictured below which allow a woman to wear almost any iPhone case with her BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA attached.

BulletTrain began making SAFE WALLET models for the iPhone 4, and trying to keep up with Apple's constant release of 4 new models a year has been a complete nightmare, which explains why BulletTrain is coming out with the all-new BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA model. The ULTRA will be compatible with basically every iPhone and Android phone ever made, and will work out of the box instantly with all 24 of the current MagSafe compatible iPhones listed below:

PRICING and AVAILABLITY

The 2026 BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA model is based upon our 2017 BulletTrain SAFE Wallet MINI, and we have been testing functional prototypes now for a few months, and have absolute proof of concept. We have begun the plastic engineering process and plan to show off renders of the upcoming production model in a week or so.

The beauty of this new BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA model is it will not only fit and work with EVERY iPhone and Android phone ever made, but will also be 100% future proof. This means if you purchase one for your iPhone 17 model, when Apple comes out with all future models, you will be able to use it instantly. Part of the reason the ULTRA is future proof is we are building it to the exact height and width measurement of Apple's Magsafe wallet case.

In the past the way it worked, is every time Apple would come out with a new generation of cases, we would have to wait 2 weeks until Apple published the formal specs before we could even start designing a SAFE WALLET case. It would typically take us 4-5 months to work out all the details and get them ready for retail purchase, which was an exhausting process. With this highly innovative new model, that will not longer be the case (pun intended), as customer will only have to buy a SAFE WALLET once, as it will be completely futureproof. This will allow BulletTrain to focus on marketing instead of trying to keep up with Apple's product release cycles which always resulted internally with BulletTrain being constantly stuck in production hell.

If all goes as planned we hope to have the ULTRA ready for Retail purchase on BulletTrain.com within 3-4 months, so hopefully by the beginning of Q2 in 2026. We plan to offer the ULTRA model for $99, including free shipping in the United States, and $149 for our 'Find My' model.

As the designer of the BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA I can tell you it will be by far and away the best minimalist Magsafe wallet ever made, and will make all other Magsafe wallets look like the half-baked complete junk they are. Over the course of the upcoming months the entire BulletTrain brand will be overhauled including an all-new website. Our new website will still offer our super iconic BulletTrain eXpress Keyboard Platform as well as our standard BulletTrain SAFE Wallet cases for sale.

For the record, as the designer of the BulletTrian SAFE WALLET, which was the first Maxamalist Minimalist wallet case ever made for iPhone, I made it as I had to have it and could not live without it. For this exact same reason, I decided to bring the BulletTrain SAFE Wallet ULTRA to life, as I started using our BulletTrain SAFE Wallet MINI when I upgraded to an iPhone 17 Pro Max. So I am not bringing the ULTRA to market to make money, even thought I think it will sell very well and become the new standard for smart phone wallets, but I am doing this as I am genuinely excited for everybody to benefit form this technology and design we largely developed back in 2017.

The BulletTrain SAFE Wallet is totally James Bond like, and by far and away the most wholistic wallet solution in the history of minimalist wallets as well as BulletTrain history.
