google maps apikeys now require billing info
As of June 11, 2018, you must enable billing with a credit card and have a valid API key for all of your projects. This will give you the ability to scale easily with less downtime and fewer performance issues. In addition, we’ve simplified our 18 individual APIs into three products: Maps, Routes, and Places.
google map embed (still free) and google map js apis that require an apikey
however google map URLs dont currently require an apikey
google maps platform now requires an APIKEY attached to an account with billing enabled otherwise you will get an error such as “google maps cant display properly like the one you can see on
https://cloud.google.com/maps-platform/pricing/sheet/
once you have an api key make sure you restrict it to prevent quota theft
or you can embed a map for free
