Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: A bank at 80% against OK$'s 24%. A bank also leads on rating (4.6 vs 3.6) and iOS requirement (12.1 vs 15.6). OK$'s advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 9 months) and ratings volume (521 vs 22). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
