Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: KickBack Points at 3.0 against MySparklight's 2.0. KickBack Points also leads on review sentiment (30% vs 6%) and iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.6). MySparklight's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 5 months) and ratings volume (208 vs 40). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
