Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: CardPriceCheck at 100% against Lighthouse's 41%. CardPriceCheck also leads on monetization model (free with in-app purchases vs subscription) and rating (5.0 vs 4.5). Lighthouse's advantage is ratings volume (914 vs 6) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Lighthouse sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $10.99 per 7 days and CardPriceCheck sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $9.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

CardPriceCheck holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Lighthouse has 914 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 41% of Lighthouse's written reviews are positive against 100% of CardPriceCheck's.
