# Database for EFT vs ThreadMaster

The clearest difference is review sentiment: Database for EFT at 80% against ThreadMaster's 33%. Database for EFT also leads on ads (none vs shown) and ratings volume (235 vs 11). ThreadMaster's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, update cadence, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Database for EFT sells 6 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month and ThreadMaster sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ThreadMaster holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Database for EFT has 235 ratings behind it against 11, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 80% of Database for EFT's written reviews are positive against 33% of ThreadMaster's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

Database for EFT ships an update weekly, ThreadMaster every 4 days. The most recent releases landed on September 21, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
