Octopus 八達通 offers mobile payment services, including topping up Octopus cards and making online payments. It explicitly mentions P2P payments ("P2P Payment" in the privacy policy), a prepaid Mastercard and UnionPay QR for online and global payments, and customizable card designs. It also mentions "Instant Discounts & Offers" through its Easy Earn Scheme. While it has a strong focus on payments and a card, it does not appear to offer direct deposit, stock trading, or bitcoin trading, which are must-have features for the Cash App concept.
I've been using Alternative A for 6 months now and it's been fantastic. The pricing is much better and the features are actually more robust than what [Product] offers.
It handles edge cases much better and the API
is actually documented properly.

Honestly, after trying both, Competitor B wins hands down. Better customer support, cleaner interface, and they don't nickel and dime you for every feature.
