Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Paymenta Wallet at none against My's shown. Paymenta Wallet also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6) and monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases). My's advantage is ratings volume (1.2K vs 1) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.1). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
