The free plan is the big difference
On StickyBot's free plan, stickies carry a "Stickied Message" header and embeds are a Premium feature. PinPal's free plan gives every server 10 pins with embeds, up to 20 link buttons and no header, which covers what most communities need.
Premium: similar price, different extras
Both cost about $5 a month. StickyBot Premium focuses on unlimited stickies, removing the header, embeds (including a custom name and picture), slower posting, a custom prefix and polls. PinPal Premium focuses on things that make pins smarter: rotating messages, live variables and countdowns, a custom name and avatar on any pin, repost-after-X-messages, expiry and 250 pins.
Setting it up
StickyBot is driven by commands. PinPal puts everything in one panel: run /setup, click New pin, write, choose channels, save. Watch it step by step.
What StickyBot does better
StickyBot has a long track record, a 14-day Premium trial and sticky polls. If polls are essential to you, StickyBot is the better pick today.
Switching takes two minutes
