I think MapBox's rates are slightly better. To Store geocoded addresses, we pay ~$12,000/year I believe. That gets you like 1 million request/day I think.

We also felt more comfortable with MapBox given Google's history of sudden api breaking changes...

Also, our requirements had to have the geocoding be very accurate. MapBox and Google's geocoding results came out to be pretty much identical. About every other service, both free and paid, were not accurate enough.

We were quoted 10M minimum geocodes @ $2.50/1,000 if we store any of the data. If my sleep deprived brain is doing that math correctly, the minimum buy would be $25,000/year. Our monthly geocode needs are ~ 5,000/month so the minimum per year is way out of align with our actual usage. Other than that it is a great product. I just wish their pricing for storing the data was more realistic.
