Virtue ‑ Charity Donations edges out EcoCart Green Protection on rating (4.9★ vs 4.8★), but the gap is small enough that pricing fit and feature differentiation should drive the decision more than the headline number. Pricing entry tiers: EcoCart Green Protection at Free to install, Virtue ‑ Charity Donations at Free to install. Check each app's tier structure for the capacity limits you actually need before deciding — the headline number is the same shape, but the gating shape per tier (apps, orders, integrations) varies. Recommended by store size: small/early-stage merchants who need fast install and low risk should default to Virtue ‑ Charity Donations; mid-market and enterprise merchants with specific feature requirements should evaluate both — EcoCart Green Protection's 93-review base may include the workflow context that matches your specific use case better than Virtue ‑ Charity Donations's broader-but-shallower coverage. This verdict is generated from the live marketplace data on this page — rating, review count, pricing tier, and category position all refresh from the canonical Shopify App Store listing every 24 hours. AppRanks does not accept payment to influence comparison outcomes; the methodology is documented on the About page and applies identically to every pair on the site.
