A '''wallet''' is a flat case or pouch,  often used to carry small personal items such as [[physical currency]], [[debit cards]], and [[credit cards]]; identification documents such as [[driving licence]], [[identification card]], [[club card]]; [[photograph]]s, [[transit pass]], [[business card]]s and other [[paper]] or [[laminate]]d cards.

Wallets may include a [[money clip]], [[coin purse]], [[chain]] fastener, [[strap]], [[Snap fastener|snap]], [[rein]], or [[zipper]]. There are specialized wallets for holding [[passports]], wearable ID cards, and [[checkbook]]s. Some unusual wallets are worn on the [[wrist]] or [[shoe]].
