[Google Maps API v3] Re: Can Google offer an ad-supported alternative to the current usage levels for the Maps API ?
There are some prices at https://developers.google.com/maps/pricing-and-plans/#details . The premium plan prices are not listed, you have to contact sales to obtain these. When I enquired a few years ago it was $10k per year but that may have changed. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.

Hi Rob, quite interesting examples, but do you know what cost in dollar I have, when for example 2,463,750 credits needed per year (as in the real estate example calculated)? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.

I found this page with details of the API credits system at https://developers.google.com/maps/premium/calculate-credits. It's aimed at people with an annual contract so they can compute usage across a range of APIs. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.

Thanks for the info Ralf, I wasn't aware of the credits plan so I'll check that out. The 50 cents per thousand views option is too much for my site since for a number of years it's been providing free mapping tools to users to add maps to their sites without having to code anything. It's reasonable to charge commercial users like Google do and they do have a programme for non-profits. The main problem for me and other developers happens when your site falls between these two categories of commercial and non-profit. I guess this is why we see so many developers using Open Street Map rather than Google. Here's an example project I've done which illustrates the issue http://www.mapchannels.com/VideoMaps.aspx which uses both YouTube and the Maps API. I could display the YouTube component as much as I wanted but if the daily views for the Maps got to 25k then I'd get billed for usage. Having an ad-supported option like YouTube would be great if Google could implement this -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.

Hi Rob, if billing is enabled (through API Console) you have to pay $0.50 USD / 1,000 additional map loads when you reach the limit, see https://developers.google.com/maps/pricing-and-plans/ Also interesting ist the new Google Maps APIs Premium Plan (former Maps for Work I guess), where you 'collect' Maps APIs Credits see https://developers.google.com/maps/premium/calculate-credits but I couldn't found any pricedetails for this new model. And at least there is the option using leaflet with OpenStreetMap data. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Maps JavaScript API v3" group.
