title: Google Place API usage limitations and billing
body: <p>I have developed one app in which i have used the Google Place API. This is what places doc says about limitation.</p>
  
  <p><strong>The Google Places API has the following query limits:</strong></p>
  
  <ol>
  <li><p>Users with an API key are allowed 1 000 requests per 24 hour period.</p></li>
  <li><p>Users who have also verified their identity through the APIs console are allowed 100 000 requests per 24 hour period. A credit card is required for verification, by enabling billing in the console. Your card will not be charged for use of the Places API.</p></li>
  </ol>
  
  <p><strong>So my question is that if i enable billing for Place API then its free? Is it really true?</strong></p>
