Switch between Google Maps and Mapbox

Maptera supports both Google Maps and Mapbox as map providers. Both are included — no separate API key needed on your side.

When to use Google Maps

• Customers expect a familiar look (Google is by far the most recognized map UI)
• You need Google Street View integration
• Local search results matter (Google generally has the most accurate POI data)

When to use Mapbox

• You want a more modern, customizable visual style
• You want vector-based smooth zoom on mobile
• You prefer a non-Google brand on your site

How to switch

On the Embed page, find the Map Provider dropdown and pick either option. The widget redraws with the new provider; nothing else needs to change.
