Switching to Stadia Maps
the better mapping alternative
Switch Today & Save up to 90%
Join the Stadia Maps customers that switched from Mapbox after realizing they could save up to 90% on their monthly bills. Don't just save money, save time and headache.
After switching and experiencing our commitment to privacy and real human support, you’ll quickly see we aren’t just cheaper—we’re a partner.
Don’t take our word for it though. Our customers say it best.
In under 30 minutes we migrated our code to Stadia Maps without prior knowledge of the Stadia Maps API, including deployment. Stadia Maps have excellent pricing, good-looking tiles, support the Mapbox API and, as we learned, have excellent support.

Calculate Your Savings
Comparing pricing across vendors is complicated, so we’ve done the math for you. Enter your current monthly Mapbox usage to see how much you could save.
Estimated savings with Stadia Maps: $175 / month
These comparisons are our best estimates based on data available publicly as of March 8, 2023. Billing methods are not always directly comparable.
Where competitors charge per map load, we count each load as 16 Stadia tile requests.
Where competitors charge per element of a time/distance matrix request, we assume 1 Stadia request per 10 elements.
Every use case is different, so please do your own research.

Commitment to Privacy
Location APIs often involve sensitive information. At Stadia Maps, we put the privacy of you and your users first by intentionally retaining as little data as possible. We’ll even work with you to create a solution that goes above and beyond the legal requirements of GDPR and CCPA, like we did for Brave Search.
- Our SDKs are fully open-source, enabling anyone to audit the code.
- We don’t collect telemetry data from your users.
- We don't use cookies in our APIs (or even on this marketing website).
- We don't store your users’ request logs longer than 30 days.
- We don't share any user data with anyone, and we never will.
Choose privacy & affordability today!
Switch your basemaps in two lines of code.
Our basemaps are a drop-in replacement for most Mapbox users. All you need to do is switch to the MapLibre library for web or native, and change a few lines of code.
Switch Your APIs
Converting an existing application from the Mapbox Directions APIs is straightforward. While our request formats differ (due to the extra flexibility we offer), we have extensive documentation to ease the transition. Your consumer applications will often need little change, as we support the popular OSRM response format, which the Mapbox Directions API is based on.
