About Stadia Maps
What is Stadia Maps?
Stadia Maps is a location API platform offering maps, geocoding, and routing services. It's designed for developers who need reliable, fast, and privacy-respecting mapping without the complexity and opaque pricing of legacy providers.
Why choose Stadia Maps?
Unlike many competitors, Stadia Maps uses a simple credit-based billing system with fixed credit pools, so you know your costs upfront. No hidden charges for active users or map loads — just predictable pricing that scales with your growth. Privacy is built in by default: GDPR/CCPA compliant, no tracking or telemetry.
Who is it for?
Ideal for startups, logistics, government, travel, and navigation companies that want to avoid vendor lock-in and get direct support from developers. Not for teams that require enterprise contracts or legacy SDK integrations; Stadia Maps emphasizes open standards like Leaflet and MapLibre.
