# Free static map maker

Type an address or coordinates and get a map image, plus the URL that makes it on your own site.

Free tools draw images with the small Free-plan mark and are limited to about 20 runs an hour. For more, [get a free key](https://pinsharing.com/dashboard): no card, and new accounts get Growth's limits for 14 days.

## How to make a static map on your own site

Every image above comes from one URL. Copy it, replace `YOUR_KEY` with your key, and use it as the `src` of an image. Change `center`, `zoom` and `markers` to move it; add more markers with `|` between them, or a route with `path`.

```
https://api.pinsharing.com/v1/static?markers=41.8781,-87.6298|41.6828,-88.3515&size=600x300&scale=2&key=YOUR_KEY
```

With markers and no center, the view fits itself to the pins. See [what a static map API is](https://pinsharing.com/learn/static-map-api) and the [full parameter list](https://pinsharing.com/docs).

## Questions

**Is this static map maker free?**

Yes, with no sign-up. Images carry a small Free-plan mark and the tool allows about 20 runs an hour. With a paid key the mark goes away and you may keep the images indefinitely.

**Can I use the image on my website?**

Use the API URL with your own key on your site. Free keys work commercially; paid plans remove the mark and let you store images indefinitely.

**Where does the map data come from?**

OpenStreetMap. Keep the credit "© OpenStreetMap contributors" near the image.

## Do this from your own code

One key for images, geocoding and tiles. Free to start, no card, and paid plans let you keep every result.
