Advanced raster tile

HERE uses the pay-per-transaction model for the HERE Raster Tile API, which means that you are charged based on the number of tile requests (transactions) made. The type of requested features is another factor that affects pricing as using certain advanced features in your requests can result in your account being placed in a different pricing category and lead to additional charges in accordance with the HERE pay-per-transaction model.

In the HERE Raster Tile API, tile requests that include certain features like the display of vehicle restriction data or specific logistics-related styles fall under the Advanced Raster Tile pricing category of HERE Map Rendering.

For more information, see HERE platform pricing.
