<![CDATA[Google Maps API]]>Hi all,

I recently received an email about the Google Maps API changing, and that there will be $200 free credits for use per month, however based on my current usage (which by my calculations seeming normal), I will exceed this amount.
This API is used by the MMM-Traffic module, and I assume others.

Does anyone know of an alternative free API that will not require billing info?

Thanks,

Johnny

Thanks for that - I assume you still have to input billing details, despite not using over $200 / mo?
Cheers

Maybe it would be simpler to reduce the requests instead of looking for an alternative?
I just have 3 routes with https://github.com/jclarke0000/MMM-MyCommute and google says to me all is fine with this $200.
