> The latest change (June 2018) has much more impact : Google decided to reduce the limit of free requests (25000 map display per day to 28000 per month - that's around 1000 map display per day, so 25 times less)
IMO the biggest takeaway from this article. I've hacked up plenty of projects on using Google Maps, but would definitely think again with this much lower free limit. Though, on the bright side, it seems that Google has finally made Maps pricing transparent:

- Qwertie 8y agoAround a similar time Mapbox also made their pricing much cheaper for lower usage users.
- mtmail 8y agoCurrent Mapbox pricing came into effect July/2017.
- Qwertie 8y agoAh yeah I say similar time because I don't check it too often but the pricing used to be: free, $500/month, and "contact us"
- Jiri_Komarek 8y agoNot Mapbox, but MapTiler Cloud lowered the price recently - https://www.maptiler.com/cloud/plans/ https://www.maptiler.com/cloud/plans/
