Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
PimsPoints holds the better App Store score, 4.1 against 2.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: JCampus Student has 186 ratings behind it against 8, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 0% of PimsPoints's written reviews are positive against 13% of JCampus Student's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly fortnightly. The most recent releases landed on October 16, 2026 and October 18, 2026 respectively.
