Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Mercury | Bank Differently holds the better App Store score, 4.9 against 2.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Mercury | Bank Differently has 14K ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 64% of Mercury | Bank Differently's written reviews are positive against 100% of Clearing's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
