a protective case adapted to enclose the mobile device, comprising:
a cavity adapted to receive the mobile device defined by an upper wall, lower wall, left wall, right wall, and a back wall, wherein the back wall comprises:
an interior side facing the cavity;
an exterior side;
a second magnetic array, wherein the second set is arranged such that the second magnetic array magnetically attracts the first magnetic array when the mobile device is disposed in the cavity;
a third magnetic array; and
a hole comprising:
an opening in the exterior side having a defined shape;
a bottom disposed between the interior side and the exterior side; and
one or more hole walls extending between the opening and the bottom;

wherein the third magnetic array is disposed in proximity to the hole; and

a mount adapted to magnetically attach to the exterior side of the protective case comprising:
a mount body comprising a front surface;
a fourth magnetic array;
a pin comprising:
an upper surface having the defined shape, and
a shaft;
a fifth magnetic array;
wherein the pin is adapted to translate from a first position to a second position under the influence of a magnetic force generated when the pin is proximate to the third magnetic array, wherein the pin is positioned relative to the fourth magnetic array such that the pin is disposed generally opposite the hole when the fourth magnetic array is aligned opposite and in register with the second magnetic array;
wherein the first position is characterized by the upper surface flush with the first surface and the shaft being surrounded by the mount body; wherein the second position is characterized by the upper surface located proximate the bottom of the hole.
