Both are free to download. Tip Bucket Pro sells 3 one-off in-app purchases and LoanAdmin sells 10 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

LoanAdmin holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 19 and 4 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 47% of Tip Bucket Pro's written reviews are positive against 45% of LoanAdmin's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Tip Bucket Pro ships an update fortnightly, LoanAdmin every 10 days. Both last shipped on November 6, 2026.
