Verdict
The clearest difference is monetization model: ValeroPay+ at free against Sunoco's free with in-app purchases. Sunoco's advantage is update cadence (every 5 weeks vs every 4 months) and iOS requirement (13.4 vs 15.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and ratings volume there is nothing between them.
