# SMS Forwarder vs Personal Loans Student Guide

The clearest difference is monetization model: SMS Forwarder at freemium against Personal Loans Student Guide's subscription. Personal Loans Student Guide's advantage is review sentiment (100% vs 71%) and rating (4.5 vs 4.2). On price, ratings volume, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. SMS Forwarder sells 9 in-app purchases, starting at $7.99 per 7 days and Personal Loans Student Guide sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
