Winner: CinCin
CinCin takes it 3–1. CinCin converts cheaper (1–3%); CinCin needs less verification; CinCin issues instantly.

Onboarding is where they split hardest: CinCin gets you spending with a light check, while Volet Card runs full verification with the usual limits and reviews that come with it.
