How OpenCage bills you
The pricing model is per day req tier (subscription). Geocoding-only specialist aggregating open data, known for clean docs and SDKs/tutorials in 40+ languages; instant self-serve trial key, no card. Best suited to: pure forward/reverse geocoding.
What to watch for on the bill
- Coverage and accuracy thin in developing regions where OpenStreetMap data is sparse
- Fixed subscription tiers rather than true granular pay-as-you-go billing
- Cheapest paid tier (~€45/mo) is a relatively high floor for very low-volume hobby use
