# Scoreholio vs PayUpGolf

The clearest difference is ratings volume: Scoreholio at 5.9K against PayUpGolf's 5. Scoreholio also leads on chart position (#52 vs unranked) and device support (4 vs 2). PayUpGolf's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs every 4 weeks). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Scoreholio sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month and PayUpGolf sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PayUpGolf holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Scoreholio has 5.9K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Scoreholio ships an update every 4 weeks, PayUpGolf weekly. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 12, 2026 respectively.
