Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Splitzee at 80% against PayLater's 28%. Splitzee also leads on rating (4.2 vs 3.5) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 3 weeks). PayLater's advantage is ratings volume (304 vs 5). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
