How to create Google API key in Google Maps Widget of UAE?
Google has recently launched the Google Maps Platform to manage the maps used on your websites.
With this launch, the process to get Google Maps API key has changed.
From June 11, 2018, it is mandatory to enable the billing account with a credit card/bank account details and have a valid API key for all projects.
Here is an article that shows how to enable billing account and get a new API key. Once you generate an API key, make sure to update UAE Google Map Widget with the new API key.
Do I need to pay anything to use a new API key?
Not initially! After creating a billing account in the Google Maps Platform, you will gain access to your $200 of free monthly usage. After that, the charges will be applied as per the standard rates decided by the Google Maps Platform.
