Pricing

We at Map Master value transparency above everything else and hate ads. Especially ads coming from Google, therefore we understand you want to get rid of them. And you can do that by supporting our project. However, as annoying as they are, ads are a necessity, and they keep us going by providing the necessary funds to pay for this fantastic project.

But we want you, our user, to fully understand what is happening behind the scenes before you decide what is the best option for you and how you can help us to help you.

Map Master was created by a team of small publishers in the gaming niche. Before the rise of AI, our job was to bring you the best gaming guides and publish them online so everyone could benefit from our findings. However, things changed when Google decided to take out small publishers by stealing their content (you can read more about it in CNN's excellent article ).

As you can imagine, overnight, we ran out of jobs and were forced to watch how ChatGPT, Gemini, Bard, and the rest scrap and publish our work without our consent.

Enter Map Master.

Besides allowing us to continue to do what we love most, Map Master is a platform that allows us to connect with you, our beloved gamers. However, Map Master is not a regular WordPress site you can develop in a day. It took over eight months of development by the talented team at GIS Art.

Map Master, on the other hand, uses a very powerful infrastructure that requires an impressive amount of resources. This infrastructure allows us to bring you the best interactive maps available online. It allows the maps to load quickly while you easily navigate the clean interface, track the progress, and much more.

The resources cost money, and sadly, unlike other similar sites, we are not owned by a corporation that makes over 1.38 billion a year, and we are not using resources from China. We are from Europe and independent.

Now that you know the story behind our project, we encourage you to make the best choice by picking one of the three tiers we offer.

PRO Users - $9.99/year

PRO Users are the core of our community and our supporters. They benefit from all current and future enhancements we will bring to Map Master starting in 2025 (including our iOS and Android app) for $9.99/year.

The price we have set for our PRO Plan may seem small, but we want every gamer to afford it, regardless of their location or the current state of the economy. PRO Users don’t get to see any of those annoying ads. Here is the list of other benefits:

• Mark ALL found locations
• Track ALL categories
• Reset tracked progress
• Suggest edits for our team
• Add unlimited notes
• Suggest new locations for our team to review
• Remember selected categories
• ADS FREE

To become a PRO User, first, you need to register on Map Master and then purchase the yearly subscription from your account.

Besides benefiting from everything Map Master has to offer and getting rid of ads, you also helped us further develop this, and we want to Thank You!

Registered Users - FREE

The Registered Users are also part of our community and benefit from most functions available on Map Master; however, they will also see the ads. We recommend this tier for casual users who spend less time gaming and don’t care about trophies, achievements, or completion rates.

As a registered user, you have the following benefits:

• Mark up to 100 found locations
• Track up to three categories
• Reset tracked progress
• Suggest edits for our team
• Suggest new locations for our team to review

Regular Users - FREE

As a Regular User, you can see all locations on the map; however, you won't be able to mark locations as found, track your progress, or add notes. Ads will also be displayed.

Since we are publishers at heart, we want to keep providing free content for the open web; hence, as a free user, you get access to it without having to register on our website.

Our content is still free, but we strongly encourage you to become a PRO User so we can keep the free content away from those who steal it using AI.

Now that you know our story, we're excited to welcome you. We hope you'll find our interactive maps as engaging as we find creating them.
