OK, the cards are great quality and deserves 5 stars. I love credit card magic. These cards are
"real". For comparison, some other gimmicked cards, like dollar-bill-to-credit-card and wondercard,
are made so that one side of the card is actually made of paper! Both sides of these overdraft
credit cards is made of plastic. To my knowledge, there is no other gimmicked credit card of this
type in the market, which explains why they can charge $50 for it.
On to the video
tutorial. It annoyed me that they basically showed the same move many many many times with a tiny
variation each time. Sorry, that does not count as a new trick, that is a variation on the same
trick. It felt like they just wanted to make the video longer so you would believe you were getting
a lot of value from it. But instead of doing that, they could have taught other moves, like tenkai
palm, credit card vanish/production, backpalm, etc.

Overdraft is such a well designed trick, and they are super high quality as well. I agree that $50
is not cheap, as many other people have said, but the three cards you receive are extremely well
made and indistinguishable from normal credit cards. Also, yes, while the normal changing cards
routine is great, what also stands out to me is all the extra built in effects they included in the
cards. There's an extra 37 and 1089 trick that I don't believe they even mention which is built into
the standard black card, and a magic square trick built into the orange card! Two more things: the
sunset card trick is reminiscent of Asi Wind's Double Exposure, so being able to do a similar effect
with just everyday carry credit cards is just amazing! Also, I don't believe anyone has pointed this
out, but you do receive a standard orange and black card, so while the instruction teaches you how
to transform the black card into a second orange card, you can also reverse all the instructions to
make it the orange card changing into a second black card, which I like a little better with the
glossy black card! But perfect EDC trick and I would highly recommend to anyone!

It’s quite a good effect but can scratch the cards very easily because if it’s nature in handling
the cards for the effect. I was slightly disappointed when my card was too much scratch on it after
just playing for a while. Other than that it’s a great effect and if you own a Orphic plus wallet
like I do. You can end clean for the transpo like copper n silver.

Love these... The 1914 Magic products are top shelf. Paul Fowler was wise to have partnered with
them to put out his creation and give us a fantastic EDC!
These get great reactions, as
everyone has heard about "cloning", but when they see "cloning" in action, they freak out.

I love the idea of using the cards for focus and the perception of reality.

The cards are great, the chip is perfect, the numbers looks great, but there are 2 things that
disapointed me, the first is the "bank" on the orange card, its "LUUT", it feels weird to me, but
its no big deal
The second thing is that the black card is a "shinny" card, and the orange is
mate, but the black card get scratched very easily, just by practicing like for 25 minutes mine was
very scratched
I think this is a problem because you have (kind of)2 black cards, and they
should look the same, but one will be very scratched, also its an EDC, that means that they should
be very durable, idk how many time the black card will last, but the orange is great
In the spirit of latest terms I hear thrown around in the magic community, I would give overdraft
from a mere visual experience for the spectator a real game changer, Every Day Carry item, and
definitely a GoTo and it truly packs small plays huge. I’m always interested in what fellow
magicians carry on them daily as those are the real next levelers. I’m carrying this one everyday
for sure.
I purchased this trick last week and instantly started playing with it, I was ready to perform in
just a few minutes as the moves are very basic.
What you get:
You get an excellent
tutorial which includes many effects and 3 super high quality Credit Cards (1 Gaff Card) this is
unlike many credit card tricks that I own because the chip is real and each card has added
subtleties built in.
How hard is this:
This is super easy and only requires a simple
move that most magicians already know however don’t let this put you off because this look like CGI
and at the end of the routine you can show everything.
Is this worth the money?
Ok, when I purchased this I thought the price was too expensive however after actually using
this every day since I feel the price is justified for many reasons. The teaching is top notch,
Packaging is the best!, This is unlike any credit card trick I have seen. The Credit cards are real
and should last a very, very long time. However the most important thing is the magic! This packs
super small and hits very hard, Oh and it’s easy to do! These now live in my wallet and I will
always have this trick on me for both magic and mentalism.
I am not a mentalist however
there is a routine on this tutorial that makes me want to learn more, actually you even get a nice
Magic square .pdf file as a bonus that the cards are designed around. I love this!
Congratulations, A very visual trick, simple, easy, and an excellent tutorial with several
variations. To carry in the wallet, and perform at any time. Good quality of the gimmick.
What could be more natural than pulling out your credit cards?
Then bring up any number of
topics - credit card cloning and fraud, con games, hypnosis - and gain your audiences interest right
away.
That's what Overdraft provides - high quality, realistic-looking credit cards that
you can use for any number of compelling presentations and highly visual moments.
The
cards are so well made they are above scrutiny - they will never be questioned. Even less so if used
in conjunction with a switching wallet, which allows you to hand out the cards at the end.
This is the perfect EDC. Takes up no room and packs a powerful punch. Well done to Paul Fowler
and the 1914, you knocked this one out of the ballpark
