Additional reward points for photos when creating a new place on the map?

Do the guides receive reward points for photos when adding photos when creating a new place on the map? Or is it better to add photos later to get extra points?

Hello @AlexanderRex, I'm not sure about that, but here is a post that you might find interesting if you want to maximize the number of points you get when adding a missing place:

Hey @AlexanderRex,

 

Feel free to check out this page for more information on points and how they relate to your contributions on Maps. Additionally, this is a great reference for how points are tallied and applied to your profile.

 

Don't hesitate to reach out should you have any additional questions.

@ArielleM_None of these two pages answers my particular question.  When I add new place it does not matter how many photos I add during creation, I  get only 15 points! But if I add photos later to the created place I can get additional points. Otherwise, am I  not rewarded for photos added to the new place?
