The clearest difference is ratings volume: Priority Pass™ at 499K against Visa Benefits's 969. Priority Pass™ also leads on update cadence (fortnightly vs every 2 months) and chart position (#106 vs unranked). On price, rating, review sentiment and ads there is nothing between them.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 4.8 for Priority Pass™ against 4.9 for Visa Benefits.
