# MySub vs Payments Manager

The clearest difference is rating: Payments Manager at 5.0 against MySub's 4.0. Payments Manager also leads on ratings volume (7 vs 2) and iOS requirement (18.6 vs 26.1). MySub's advantage is review sentiment (50% vs 25%) and update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. MySub sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and Payments Manager sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Payments Manager holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.0. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 2 and 7 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 50% of MySub's written reviews are positive against 25% of Payments Manager's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

MySub ships an update fortnightly, Payments Manager every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 24, 2026 and June 1, 2026 respectively.
