Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
My Telsim holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: amaysim has 780 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 53% of amaysim's written reviews are positive against 29% of My Telsim's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
amaysim ships an update every 4 weeks, My Telsim fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on November 6, 2026 and November 3, 2026 respectively.
