# VA Disability Pay vs ServicePerks

The clearest difference is monetization model: VA Disability Pay at free with in-app purchases against ServicePerks's subscription. VA Disability Pay also leads on review sentiment (71% vs 50%) and ratings volume (11K vs 721). ServicePerks's advantage is update cadence (every 4 days vs every 6 weeks) and chart position (#29 vs unranked). On price, rating, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. VA Disability Pay sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and ServicePerks sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for VA Disability Pay against 4.8 for ServicePerks. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: VA Disability Pay has 11K ratings behind it against 721, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 71% of VA Disability Pay's written reviews are positive against 50% of ServicePerks's.
