PASADENA, Calif., Feb. 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Wallaby Financial Inc., the leader in mobile and web­based credit card optimization solutions, today announced the launch of Wallaby for Chrome 2.0. This update provides users with a new and improved user experience and makes it easier than ever for people to save money, earn rewards, and simplify their lives.

Wallaby helps consumers get the most out of their credit cards by optimizing usage based on individual preferences. Now with the Wallaby for Chrome 2.0 update, users have the ability to manage their card recommendations based on their specific spending and reward goals, such as maximizing rewards or avoiding interest and fees. You simply shop online and when you are ready to check out, Wallaby's algorithm will recommend the best card to use for your preferences and goals.

"Figuring out which credit card to use shouldn't be a complicated question, but with varying rewards, interest rates, cash back offers and fees, it is easy for consumers to spend more or earn less than they should," said Wallaby founder and CEO Matthew Goldman. "This update to our Chrome extension enables our users to seamlessly optimize their credit card usage whenever they shop online."
