The short version

  • Only Moovit has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Airbnb guests pay a service fee of 14.1% to 16.5% of the booking subtotal on top of the nightly rate; Moovit the vendor's own homepage as captured by the Internet Archive on 30 December 2021 describes itself as 'Moovit, an Intel company,' a Mobility as a Service (MaaS) solutions provider; it is a free consumer transit app with no consumer pricing tier, monetizing instead through enterprise MaaS solution sales that are contact-only
