Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: BT Powerbox at none against Push Notification's 1. BT Powerbox also leads on ads (none vs shown). Push Notification's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 20 months) and device support (3 vs 1). On price and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
