Ads Coming Soon to Apple Maps
As reported by MediaPost, businesses in the U.S. and Canada can buy Apple Maps ad slots starting today. An introductory offer provides advertisers with a 15% credit towards future ad spend, on up to $1,000 per month of spend over the first year.
The ads do not appear to be visible in Apple Maps just yet, but they should be rolling out soon, as Apple previously stated that the ads would go live at some point in summer 2026. Ads will appear at the top of Apple Maps search results and at the top of a new "Suggested Places" section in the app.
