# Golf Bettor vs Skins App

The clearest difference is rating: Golf Bettor at 4.5 against Skins App's 3.6. Golf Bettor also leads on update cadence (every 4 weeks vs every 18 months) and review sentiment (60% vs 47%). Skins App's advantage is ads (none vs shown). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Golf Bettor sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $9.99 per year and Skins App sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $40.00 per year. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
