Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: LendDirect at 100% against WeGo Mastercard's 17%. LendDirect also leads on update cadence (every 3 days vs every 5 weeks). WeGo Mastercard's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 2.3). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
WeGo Mastercard holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 2.3. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 3 and 2 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of LendDirect's written reviews are positive against 17% of WeGo Mastercard's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
LendDirect ships an update every 3 days, WeGo Mastercard every 5 weeks. Both last shipped on October 25, 2026.
