The reinforcing add-on comprises mating top and bottom portions having a housing cavity, proximal end, central body, and distal end, with a cord channel extending therebetween. The central body has a proximal section and a distal section meeting at a bend angle θ, wherein θ is an obtuse angle. Side walls having side wall edges extend along the housing cavity, proximal end, central body and distal end, having attachment means for attaching the top and bottom portions to one another to form the reinforcing add-on and house the portion of the mobile charging cord. The reinforcing add-on is appointed to be attached to and house the portion of the mobile charging cord to prevent bend strain and increase the cord's service life.
