# Paper Money Value vs NoteID

The clearest difference is rating: NoteID at 4.8 against Paper Money Value's 1.0. NoteID also leads on ratings volume (34 vs 1). Paper Money Value's advantage is update cadence (weekly vs monthly). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Paper Money Value sells 2 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days and NoteID sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $6.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
