Without the pass / With the pass
Free signed-in exports include a light brand watermark. The pass removes it — and licenses what you export for commercial use.
Same map. Your colors.
Custom presets let you set per-feature colors, line widths, and visibility. Save them, switch between them, keep going.
Save a preset while your pass is active and it stays on your account: stay signed in and you can keep selecting it from the menu after the pass expires. Creating, editing or deleting a preset needs an active pass.
Stop at the border.
Region clip uses the OSM admin boundary so neighbours don't bleed into the export. The geometry is real, not a smooth blob.
Honest answers
- Is this a subscription?
No. The Export Pass, hi-res packs and GIS packages are one-time payments. A pass ends on its end date; pack credits do not expire. Buy again when you need more.
- Does the pass work on both apps?
Yes. Same account on FreakMaps and RailsMaps gets you the same pass. Sign in on each domain.
- What does region clip actually do?
It crops the export to the OSM admin boundary of the selected region. Neighbouring countries stop at the border instead of bleeding into the image.
- What size are the PNGs?
PNG size is the current map view or crop size multiplied by the selected render scale. Browser exports support 1x, 2x, 3x, and 4x — default is 3x, and that applies to free watermarked downloads too, nothing hidden. Bigger window or crop plus higher scale means a bigger PNG. Device or GPU limits may cap the top presets.
- What about refunds?
Send an email and it will be sorted out.
- Do my custom presets disappear when the pass expires?
No. Stay signed in and your saved presets stay in the list — switch to them whenever you like, even after the pass expires. Creating, editing or deleting a preset needs an active pass, as do watermark-free browser PNGs and the other pass perks.
- Is there a free way to try the pass?
Yes. If you own the RailsMaps mobile app, sign in on the app with the same account to claim a complimentary +2-week pass. The pass works on both RailsMaps and FreakMaps.
- Can I use the exports commercially?
Yes. An active pass licenses the images you export for commercial use by you or your organisation — marketing, publications, websites, print, worldwide and in any medium. The licence is perpetual: images exported while the pass was active stay licensed after it expires. Reselling the images as imagery — stock libraries, posters, map packs — still needs written permission. Full wording on the Terms page. OpenStreetMap, MapLibre and Protomaps credits stay on every export — removing the brand watermark does not remove those.
- Is custom or commissioned work available?
Yes. Maps of specific regions or networks, styling matched to a brand, high-resolution renders for print, or visualisations built from your own data — all available as commissioned work, priced separately from the pass. Get in touch through the contact page and describe what you need.
- Do hi-res and GIS exports need a pass?
No. Hi-res packs and GIS packages work without a pass. A pass adds a daily allowance of hi-res exports; GIS packages are always bought separately. An unused hi-res credit also unlocks region clip and print sizes above A2 / 4096 px.
