Stadia Maps
OpenStreetMap-based map tiles, geocoding and routing billed in shared credits, with EU-only endpoints on all plans.
EU-only endpoints in Frankfurt and Paris come with every plan, unlike MapTiler, where the EU endpoint is reserved for paid plans. Pricing is in shared credits, and a basemap tile costs 1 credit while a forward geocode costs 20, so geocoding-heavy apps drain the pool quickly. Plans run from Starter at $20 for 1M credits to Professional at $250 for 25M, with overage falling from $0.03 to $0.015 per 1,000 credits. Permanent storage of geocoding results needs Standard or Professional, and the free plan forbids commercial use.

Credits: vector or raster basemap tile 1 credit, forward geocoding 20 credits per request (autocomplete v2 1 credit). Plans: Starter $20/month with 1M credits then $0.03/1k credits; Standard $80 with 7.5M then $0.02/1k; Professional $250 with 25M then $0.015/1k. Assumes ~15 vector tiles per map load (initial viewport; panning loads more), so 1k map loads = 15k credits and 1k geocodes = 20k credits. The credit pool is shared, but is modelled here as covering map loads first, so mixed usage is slightly overstated. Free plan excluded because it forbids commercial use. Geocoding results may only be stored permanently on paid Standard and Professional plans ("temp storage" on Free/Starter); no server-side caching. EU-only endpoints (api-eu / tiles-eu, Frankfurt and Paris) on all plans; DPA published. Stadia Maps, Inc. is a Delaware corporation (East Lansing, MI) with founders based in Estonia.
