Cash & Burn: The Best Travel Money Belts to Avoid a Disaster Vacation

One of the thinnest belts on this list, the Hopsooken Travel Money Belt is perfect for people on quick trips who don’t want the discomfort of a bulky travel money belt but still want security and peace of mind!

The Hopsooken features two zippered pockets for larger items such as smartphones and passports, two mesh pockets for currency and credit cards, and, in between the two, a cleverly hidden small mesh pocket for the most important cards and keys.

Made with waterproof and ultralight nylon, the Hopsooken also doubles perfectly as a money belt for runs or other workouts! 

Though RFID chips were designed with consumer convenience in mind, these tiny technological marvels have provided quite the headache for travelers over the past few years.

That’s why the Alpha Keeper has consistently been one of the best rated money belts for travel – not only is the belt itself made with 100% RFID-blocking material, but the belt comes with a whopping 7 additional RFID blocking sleeves to protect your credit cards, documents, passports, keys, and more.

With an extendable strap reaching 70 inches, a breathable mesh back pad, and a waterproof construction, the Alpha Keeper works just as hard keeping you comfortable as it does keeping your valuables safe!

Unlike other travel money belts, which depend on separate RFID-blocking sleeves to safeguard your valuables, the Zero Grid RFID-Blocking Money Belt cleverly outfits the entire belt with RFID-blocking material.

That limits the hassle of worrying whether you remembered to secure your electronically sensitive materials!

Outfitted with water-resistant rip-stop nylon and a breathable mesh back, the Zero Grid eliminates the discomfort, sweating, and rashes that often accompany some of the cheaper travel money belts.

Designed to carry passports, boarding passes, credit cards, and smartphones (not to mention a carabiner clip for your keys and flash drives), the Zero Grid is a behemoth among the best money belts for travel, but for extended trips it works like a beauty!

Made from a standard bearer in the travel accessory industry, the Venture 4th Travel Money Belt offers a blend of security, durability, and comfort rare even among the best travel belts.

The Venture belt also comes with 7 RFID-blocking sleeves to protect your belongings and, unlike many travel belts, is seam-taped with elastic material so the Venture belt is only as bulky as it needs to be!

The Venture belt also comes with waterproof nylon, rip-stop fabric, and a treated inner layer of fabric that makes the Venture comfortable whether it’s worn over or under your clothes.

If you’re crazy and for some reason don’t think the Venture is among the best travel money belts, Venture offers a one-year money-back guarantee, which offers that much more peace of mind!

Though simpler in design and function than some of the other best rated money belts for travel, the Raytix Travel Money Belt offers everything you need at a truly unbelievable price.

The Raytix travel belt and neck wallet secures flat and comfortably around your waist, making it literally unnoticeable when worn under clothing.

It also comes with complete RFID-blocking technology, meaning you to don’t have to sweat the electronic schemers among us, either.

With just two zippered pockets on the belt’s front, the Raytix doesn’t hold quite as much as some of the other best travel money belts, but with a price point under 10 bucks, it’s hard to beat the Raytix for quick and simple trips!

For something a bit more elevated, try Royce’s RFID blocker travel organizer.
