Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is update cadence: Wing at fortnightly against Express Checkout's every 2 months. Wing also leads on ratings volume (9.2K vs 544). Express Checkout's advantage is rating (4.9 vs 4.7) and monetization model (ad-supported vs free with in-app purchases). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
