Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: SOCAR at none against Gulf Pay's shown. SOCAR also leads on iOS requirement (7.0 vs 15.6). Gulf Pay's advantage is update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 4 months) and chart position (#204 vs unranked). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
