Each score is a weighted average of up to five criteria, each out of 10. Two are calculated from public data (regulatory record and app store rating); three are editorial judgments based on documented features, payment terms and offer terms. A criterion without verified evidence (an offer in Ontario, an app rating we could not confirm) is left out and the other weights are rescaled. Full method.
