Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers to common questions about geospatial data, licensing and using location intelligence in your products.

How does Google Maps Platform pricing work?

Pricing is consumption-based, meaning you only pay for the services you use. Snowdrop provides volume discounts and helps manage your project keys and budget to keep costs predictable.

Can I have full control over the APIs?

Yes. Snowdrop provides guidance, support and usage insights, including forecasting, but the implementation, configuration and overall development remain fully in your hands and your team’s control.

Can we customise the look of the maps?

Yes. Using Data-Driven Styling and Advanced Markers, you can customise maps in real-time based on your bank’s branding and specific user interactions for better engagement.

How can location data help with fraud detection?

Institutions can trigger real-time alerts by comparing a transaction's geographic coordinates with a user's mobile device location, preventing fraud before it occurs.
