Making Navigation SDKs more accessible with new pricing

Google Maps Platform recently announced exciting new updates to the Navigation SDKs for Android and iOS. First they released visual road level details, providing you with highly detailed road information to help your users understand their environment and navigate with confidence. Next, they released real-time disruptions and an enhanced adaptive turn card design to enhance driver awareness and modernise the driver experience. They’ve also been working on making our SDKs accessible to more organisations—whether you’re a start-up, small business, or large organisation with navigation at its core. 

Now, they’re rolling out new pricing for our Navigation SDKs, ensuring even more businesses can build helpful experiences with our geospatial data.

Per Destination Pricing 

Google Maps Platform reduced the per-destination cost of the Google Maps Platform Navigation SDKs by half or more. 

Volume Pricing

They’re giving everyone the ability to unlock volume discounts more quickly by reducing the number of calls required to reach those discounts. 

Usage Cap

The usage cap will remain the same, with 1,000 billable events or destinations per month available at no cost. 

We hope these changes will encourage even more innovation and empower more start-ups and fast-growing small businesses to use Google Maps Platform’s Navigation SDKs to help their users navigate the world around them.
