Any way to earn money from google map local guides

@AngieYC I think saya akan ask really good question because local guide updated information on Google map and help to improve Google services So that people use more and more maps and Google benefits. Despite this, the local guide is not getting any benefit.

What is the use, some useless posts in youtube is being paid

Thank you for your comment.

I don’t know more about Google local guide. However, I try to contribute all times. Everything is so easy to contributing. It’s very interesting for me. Now, I take more photos where I go. It’s can help each other all over the world. Thanks Google for being a part of developing world maps :green_heart: :green_heart: :blue_heart: :blue_heart:

I share your thought Lokman1984 :+1:

Thanks for helping me plz continue if we paid everybody would post to much but you earn rewards & more. P.,S this would b better and your spelling was wrong alot apologize for being blunt.

thank you for the comment, the fact that we do not take anything but points and levels, I would also prefer some coupons that can be spent on google shop

Thats what’s nice everyone here is eager to help so you and anyone reading this knows if you need help all you gotta do is ask and someone will know the answer

  • Early access to new Google products
  • Invitations to offline events
  • Access to exclusive perks
  • A badge of distinction in the Google Maps app

Is that all? come on man. you look bad right now, Google so cheap . you afford to pay , lets work things out. incentive type of pay.

Hi @Eim ,
Thanks for reaching out to us!

The Local Guides program is a voluntary program and is all about helping each other with our contributions. There are some rewards, given from time to time as a ‘‘thank you’’ from Google for your quality contributions, however, there isn’t a promised reward for participating or reaching a certain level. There isn’t payment involved as well. You can read more about it in this article. I also recommend that you check this discussion where you will find some of the reasons for being a Local Guide.

To maximize your chances of being eligible for a future reward opportunity, continue to add high quality contributions to Google Maps and make sure to update your email preferences.

Google makes a lot of money information we collect abd provide. With 36 million views of my photos I am still paying like an idiot $160 a year to host the photos to Google. I hate this company and their greed.they pay to everyone, but not us. Look how much you tubers making. They don’t give a shit about us. If you don’t believe it, visit our perks section and see there are none.

I have been wondering the same thing. Even know my posts and reviews reached more than a million views and many likes already. FEW MONTHS AGO I STARTED TO WONDER IF IT WAS WORTH IT TO TAKE YOUR TIME TO REVIEW AND POST. SOME TIMES EVEN POST PROFESSIONAL PHOTOS. I THINK GOOGLE SHOULD DO SOMETHING FOR US. HELP US SOME WAY. I KNOW IS FUN AND WE LOVE HELPING OTHERS, BUT NOTHING IS FREE IN THIS LIFE.

I honestly can’t figure out if raising a debate that affects the whole world of mappers can become spam! am I annoying? ciao bello.

Thank you @InaS it was really helpful

Hi MortenCopenhagen,

Thanks for your opinion.

I am agree with you, instead of money google can reward with other gifts like pen, water bottle, lunch box etc.

yes, I agree very much even if the shopping vouchers on Google shop would not be bad.
I do not understand the google team that does not understand how the increase in mapers would be so great as to map the whole world and its points that can be visited and pleasant
