The clearest difference is rating: connectIPS at 2.2 against UnelmaPay's 1.0. connectIPS also leads on ratings volume (37 vs 1) and review sentiment (8% vs 0%). UnelmaPay's advantage is update cadence (every 6 days vs every 3 weeks). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
