Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Flip at every 2 days against Cardzilla's every 4 weeks. Flip also leads on rating (5.0 vs 4.6). Cardzilla's advantage is ratings volume (76 vs 8) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.6). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
