It is important to switch to Google Maps as soon as possible, open street maps are very inaccurate. Give the option to configure multiple map providers based on the country, even being able to place our own Google Maps API KEY to cover the costs.

We are currently experiencing the same issue. The current map is inaccurate. Customers are unable to find their locations and enable map location isn't helpful. Please integrate with Google Maps. You can offer such a platform without functional address location system.

Tony Wong Liu Understood but we found that Google Map is too expensive. We may introduce it under Business plan. Are you okay to upgrade to Business plan for Google Map integration?

Youmin KimI believe that a good map integration is a necessity for many functions inside TakeApp and should be available for all paid plans. There is a big gap between the Bussiness Plan and the Premium Plan which most small restaurants (I believe are the main users of the app, but I might be wrong) will not be willing to take. This depends much on TakeApp's commercial and pricing strategy but from a restaurant's point of view, the map integration must be flawless since customers are required to input their exact address and the map shown should pinpoint their exact location, if it doesn't, they will just prefer to order from different sale channels, making TakeApp expendable.
Google Maps is just an option but I believe that there are other sites which might not be as expensive as them. One that works very well at least for Perú and Chile, is "Leaflet"/"MapTiler".

Yes please! Google maps is the way to go, at least for Peru. The current map is extremely inaccurate.
