Before you decide which case to buy, think about what features you need. Do you want a folio you can take it on and off as needed without changing your case? Do you plan to use a MagSafe charger or accessories? How many card slots do you need, and do you need a separate slot for cash? Do you want a closure tab to secure the folio closed? Do you want a folio that doubles as a kickstand? Finally, think about the materials and colors you prefer.
The TUCCH Folio Wallet Case for iPhone 13 is a well-priced option that comes in plenty of colors. It holds a pretty standard three cards with a separate slot for cash as well. It does fold into a kickstand so you can comfortably watch videos on your iPhone.
Another option to consider is Apple's iPhone Leather Wallet with MagSafe. It isn't a folio, but it does hold the typical three cards (or cash) and it gives you the flexibility to use it with any MagSafe-compatible case (or no case). The Find My capability is a fantastic touch, but be sure that you're buying the 2021 version if you want that feature. The previous year's version does not have it.
