Need Clarification on SDK and Map Usage Pricing Model

I'm Stuck
1

Hi,

We are starting a new project and considering using Niantic, but our client is having difficulty understanding the pricing model, as it is not entirely clear to us either.

For example, let’s say the SDK allows 500 Monthly Active Users (MAU) for free. If 10 additional users join in the same month, we get charged—let’s assume $1. Now, in the following month, no new users join, meaning only the same 510 users from the previous month are active. Will we be charged again for those 10 additional users, or is the charge only for new users beyond the free limit each month?

Same question for the Maps too.

Thanks!

Best regards,
Adarsh

Hello,

I’m still working on getting pricing related information for Maps, but for the Lightship SDK, it’s always total users per month, even if they’re returning users, so if those 10 extra users are all returning users and aren’t new, you would still be charged for the 10 extra users
