# GettingOut vs CorrectPay

The clearest difference is ratings volume: GettingOut at 2.1K against CorrectPay's 148. GettingOut also leads on chart position (#36 vs #157). CorrectPay's advantage is monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 16.0). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 1.9 for GettingOut against 2.0 for CorrectPay. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: GettingOut has 2.1K ratings behind it against 148, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews are what separate them: 5% of GettingOut's written reviews are positive against 9% of CorrectPay's.
