# eBeacons vs GET Mobile ID

The clearest difference is rating: GET Mobile ID at 4.7 against eBeacons's 2.3. GET Mobile ID also leads on ratings volume (6.1K vs 3) and update cadence (every 2 months vs every 6 months). eBeacons's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 16.0).
