# Invitation Maker vs Invitation Maker Greeting Card

The clearest difference is monetization model: Invitation Maker Greeting Card at freemium against Invitation Maker's subscription. Invitation Maker Greeting Card also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.5) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). Invitation Maker's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Invitation Maker sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per 7 days and Invitation Maker Greeting Card sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Invitation Maker Greeting Card holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 11K and 7.2K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 54% of Invitation Maker's written reviews are positive against 52% of Invitation Maker Greeting Card's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Invitation Maker ships an update every 3 weeks, Invitation Maker Greeting Card every 6 weeks. Both last shipped on November 9, 2026.
