# Privacy.com vs FissionPay

The clearest difference is review sentiment: FissionPay at 100% against Privacy.com's 39%. FissionPay also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.5) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). Privacy.com's advantage is ratings volume (7.2K vs 3). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

FissionPay holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5.
