Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is review sentiment: OrbitRemit Money Transfer at 62% against First Super's 0%. OrbitRemit Money Transfer also leads on update cadence (every 11 days vs every 14 months) and ratings volume (149 vs 2). First Super's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and rating (5.0 vs 4.7). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.

ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

First Super holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: OrbitRemit Money Transfer has 149 ratings behind it against 2, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 62% of OrbitRemit Money Transfer's written reviews are positive against 0% of First Super's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

OrbitRemit Money Transfer ships an update every 11 days, First Super every 14 months. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
