Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Refive Market holds the better App Store score, 4.7 against 2.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Refive Market has 602 ratings behind it against 95, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 7% of BidFTA Mobile App's written reviews are positive against 0% of Refive Market's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
BidFTA Mobile App ships an update fortnightly, Refive Market monthly. The most recent releases landed on October 20, 2026 and October 22, 2026 respectively.
