Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: ValeroPay+ at none against Texaco's shown. ValeroPay+ also leads on monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.4). Texaco's advantage is review sentiment (60% vs 36%) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 4 months). On price, rating, ratings volume and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
