Google maps API key

@ooom416354
I THINK you can use the Google maps API unlimited for this purpose for your $200-but-free-subscription. You don’t need to consider limiting to a few calls per day. It is a bit oddly presented by google.Please confirm someone.

@lavolp3 yea that’s what I’ve been looking at, the whole list is so strangely presented. i just deleted whatever projects I had and am going to start from scratch with a new API key but the quotas and stuff like that is just impossible to figure out where and what I’m entering in so I just wanted to make sure that the requests are limited by the MM module.
-
@lavolp3 so, our requests will be free? Because google changed his rules few months ago and I can’t find right information about it.
-
@banandze Im trying myself and am not able to get it to work. Painful, wish there was some better documentation as to what to do on googles end.
-
@banandze I have reactivated the module, but am thankful to anyone with more knowledge like the developer answering this.

Google Maps was losing competition with Mapbox before but after the new pricing model, it has become totally unappealing. Consider switching to Mapbox or HERE.

@CharlesRobbins I have used the Google APi extensively in the last months while developing my own version of MMM-Commute and have to say i didn’t need to pay anything at any time.
That said, I don’t understand why they are making it so complicated (with this odd $200 voucher per month) and uncomprehensive.
