A Yondr pouch alternative you own outright

If you are researching Yondr-style phone pouches for a school, venue, court or workplace, PhoneLock supplies the same category of product: a neoprene pouch with a tamper-evident magnetic lock, opened in seconds with a staff-held magnetic key. You buy the pouches, brand them as your own, and keep them for every event or school year that follows.
