# PayShare vs ChronoPay

PayShare and ChronoPay are too close to call on the numbers: across 6 compared parameters — price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases among them — neither pulls far enough ahead to decide it. What separates them is feature set and interface, not measurable difference.

Both are free to download. PayShare sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per month and ChronoPay sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

PayShare ships an update fortnightly, ChronoPay every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 21, 2026 and October 9, 2026 respectively.
