Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Apple Wallet at 4.8 against FastPay Wallet's 4.3. Apple Wallet also leads on ratings volume (7.6M vs 5.5K) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). FastPay Wallet's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 3 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Apple Wallet holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Apple Wallet has 7.6M ratings behind it against 5.5K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Apple Wallet's written reviews are positive against 59% of FastPay Wallet's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Apple Wallet ships an update every 3 months, FastPay Wallet fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 8, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
