Hi, I hope you’re doing well.

I’m currently using an alternative Joomla plugin to display custom maps on our website. Recently, we received an email from Google informing us of upcoming changes in their pricing structure and a requirement to migrate our Google reCAPTCHA key to a Google Cloud Project by the end of 2025.

Given these developments, I’m exploring the possibility of switching to the Linky Map Joomla plugin. Could you please clarify if using the Linky Map plugin would still necessitate paying any extra fees to Google for accessing Google Maps services? Additionally, if there are any specific integration steps or documentation regarding this matter, I would appreciate your guidance.

Thank you for your assistance. I look forward to your response.

Best regards,

RK.

Hi,

Thanks for contacting us here about this extension.

When you choose the Custom vector maps feature in Linkymap, it's completely free to use - no fees at all.
However, if you decide to use Google vector Maps instead, there will be usage-based charges that apply.

We wanted to make sure you're aware of both options so you can choose what works best for you!

Cheers,

Hi there! Thank you for your response and for clarifying the pricing details regarding Linky Map. I appreciate the explanation!

I’d like to ask for a bit more detail on the difference between Custom Vector Maps and Google Vector Maps in Linky Map. Could you elaborate on how they function and what the key differences are in terms of features, setup, and usability?

Additionally, I came across the "My Maps Location" feature and was curious about its purpose. Could you provide some insight into what it does and who would benefit from using it?

Looking forward to your response. Thanks again for your support!

Also here is the map I'm thinking to replace with Linky Map, do you think Linky map can replace this without having to pay extra fee to google?
