Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is rating: Mars at 4.8 against The Ramp.'s 3.6. Mars also leads on review sentiment (91% vs 49%) and ratings volume (22K vs 623). The Ramp.'s advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 11 days vs monthly). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.
