# KickUp Cup vs Kickerinho

The clearest difference is rating: Kickerinho at 4.4 against KickUp Cup's 3.3. Kickerinho also leads on ratings volume (347 vs 3) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 7 months). KickUp Cup's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and review sentiment (100% vs 71%). On price, in-app purchases, monetization model and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. KickUp Cup sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Kickerinho sells 6 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Kickerinho holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 3.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Kickerinho has 347 ratings behind it against 3, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of KickUp Cup's written reviews are positive against 71% of Kickerinho's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

KickUp Cup ships an update every 7 months, Kickerinho every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on October 1, 2026 and October 11, 2026 respectively.
