WalletHub offers free consumer tools,[6][7][8] such as its WalletLiteracy Quiz[9][10] and its Financial Fitness Tool, which provides users with credit reports, scores and monitoring.[11][12] WalletHub has tools for comparing credit cards, personal loans, car insurance and bank accounts.[13][14]
History
WalletHub initially positioned itself as a "personal finance social network" with a focus on reviews for financial advisors,[2][15][16] and later expanded to add financial management tools.[17][18][19][20][21]
In February 2015, Major League Baseball filed a trademark dispute claiming that WalletHub's logo resembled the logos of the Washington Nationals and the Chicago Cubs too closely.[22] Major League Baseball ended the dispute in August 2015 after WalletHub amended its trademark registration to explicitly exclude baseball and softball from the trademark's scope.[23]
Wallethub lists US cities with population of over 200,000, based on the recent US Census data instead of all US cities and Census-designated places.
Products and services
WalletHub provides financial product comparison tools[24] for credit cards, car insurance, and bank accounts. The company has produced a wide range of research reports, including a quarterly credit card debt report and reports comparing cities and states in financially relevant categories.[25][26][27] WalletHub also offers free credit scores, reports, and monitoring through a partnership with TransUnion.[28]
