FAQ
Questions, seen and answered.
Getting started
Do I need a credit card to start?
No. Every service has a free monthly allowance. You only add a card to go beyond it.
Keys & security
Publishable vs secret keys?
Publishable (pk) keys are safe in the browser and must be locked to your origins. Secret (sk) keys are server-side only. Both are scoped, rotatable and revocable.
Data & licensing
Where does the map & place data come from?
OS Open Names / ONS (OGL), GeoNames (CC-BY), Wikidata (CC0) and OpenStreetMap / Protomaps (ODbL). Attribution is mandatory and rendered by default in the SDK.
