Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Paytix User at none against Canada Post's shown. Paytix User also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). Canada Post's advantage is update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 11 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
