Snazzy Maps - Google Maps with customized style

Snazzy Maps is a tool allowing you to create a google map with your own style. Maps created with Snazzy Maps are different than the maps in WebWave - free website builder with no coding. They enable you to change colors and add customized marks with any description/graphics.

Placing Snazzy Maps on your website takes three steps: 

• Generate API KEY 
• Create and generate a map
• Add a map to your website

Generate API KEY 

1. Go to cloud.google.com/maps-platform 
    
2. Press "Get started", select "Maps", "Routes" and "Places", then "Continue" 
    
3. Type any project name, accept terms of use and press "Next"
    
4. If you haven't created a billing account yet, register and continue 
    
5. Activate Google Maps platform by pressing "Next"
    
6. You will receive your individual API KEY - save it in a safe place, you will need it later.

Even though Google requires a billing account, you won't have to pay anything if your map is not displayed more than 25 000 times per month.
