# MobilePay vs Nordea ID

The clearest difference is update cadence: MobilePay at weekly against Nordea ID's every 6 weeks. Nordea ID's advantage is review sentiment (40% vs 20%) and device support (3 vs 1). On price, rating, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

MobilePay holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.4. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 1.1K and 1.6K respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 20% of MobilePay's written reviews are positive against 40% of Nordea ID's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

MobilePay ships an update weekly, Nordea ID every 6 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and September 20, 2026 respectively.
