- Nomad’s Tracking Card Air with Find Hub compatibility costs $29, and it sold out almost immediately.
Bluetooth tracking cards keep track of wallets while maintaining a compact form factor and slim feel. To date, popular tracking cards have primarily been launched with Apple Find My support, while Google Find Hub compatibility is less common. As Urban Armor Gear (UAG) announces, the tide is beginning to turn Metropolis Tracker Card with Find Hub and Find My support earlier this month. Now Nomad is updated Tracking Card Weather for the first time with a model compatible with Find Hub.
Tracking Card Air is a thin and light Bluetooth tracker about the size of two credit cards. The official dimensions are 86mm x 54mm x 1.7mm and it weighs 12 grams. Unlike the thicker Nomad Tracking Card Pro, which doesn’t come with Google Find Hub support, the Tracking Card Air isn’t disguised as a credit card. It has an accessory that makes it easy to detect as a Bluetooth tracker for anyone nearby.

Tracking Card Air costs $29 for both the Find My and Find Hub versions, but there are a few differences. The Apple Find My model is available in both white and black, while the Google Find Hub variant is only available in black. More importantly, the Find Hub model offers seven months of battery life, while the Find My version has a shorter battery life of five months.
Nomad’s Tracking Card Air can be recharged using any MagSafe or Qi wireless charging pad. It connects to any Android device running Android 9 or later Google Find Hub app. When connected, the Find Hub app displays the current Tracking Card Air battery percentage.
Nomad says the Tracking Card Air contains minimal metal and no magnets. This means users won’t have to worry about Tracking Card Air demagnetizing their credit cards. However, the company notes that RFID-blocking wallets can interfere with the Tracking Card Air and Bluetooth signals sent from it.
Tracking Card Does Not Air has ultra wideband (UWB) supportand instead relies on Bluetooth for connectivity. This isn’t surprising since few Find Hub trackers support UWB, but it’s worth keeping in mind.
Nomad’s Tracking Card Air comes nearly two years after introducing the original Find My model with Find Hub support. It sold out almost immediately, indicating a demand for more Find Hub wallet tracking cards. With Find Hub support, you can sign up to be notified by email when Tracking Card Air is back in stock.
