# Instaform Maps: a store locator where every location can take orders and bookings

**URL:** https://www.instaform.co/store-locator

Show all your locations on one map with opening hours and directions. Then give
each one its own buttons: Order, Book, Get a quote, or your Instaform page.
Orders and bookings arrive like any other response to your forms, marked with
the location.

Maps is included in paid plans; see pricing at https://www.instaform.co/#pricing.
It runs on your own Google or Mapbox account.

## Live in three steps

Start with one address. Add the rest whenever you like.

1. **Add your locations.** Type an address, or paste a list from a spreadsheet.
2. **Connect your map.** Link your Google or Mapbox account, or do it later.
   Your locations show as a list until you do.
3. **Share it.** Publish, then copy your map's link or a short piece of code
   for your website.

## Every location gets its own buttons

Choose what people can do at each location. Each button opens one of your
Instaform forms, your Instaform page, or any link you choose.

- Order, Book, Get a quote, Contact
- Your Instaform page
- Call, email and directions

Every location can offer several of your own forms, like Order and Book a
table, right on the map. Orders and bookings arrive like any other response to
that form, marked with the location, so you know which branch to send them to.

## What your map does

- **Find the nearest.** Search by city or postcode, or use my location. The
  closest location comes first.
- **Open now.** Opening hours and holidays on every location, with Open now and
  Closes soon worked out for you.
- **Simple filters.** Filter buttons, like Open now or your own Parking, narrow
  the list in one tap.
- **Directions in one tap.** Opens Google Maps or Apple Maps with the route
  ready.
- **Its own page.** Your map gets a page with its own link to share anywhere.
- **On your website.** Paste a short piece of code and the map appears on any
  site.
- **Your look.** Your colors, your pins and a photo for each location.
- **Three languages.** Visitors see the map in English, Spanish or Portuguese.
- **No Instaform logo.** Your map carries your brand, not ours.

## Questions

- **Do I need a Google Maps account?** You connect your own Google or Mapbox
  account, and we guide you through it step by step. Until then, your locations
  show as a list, so you can start today.
- **What does the map cost to run?** Google and Mapbox each give a free monthly
  allowance. Our setup guide compares them and shows how each one charges.
- **Can each location have its own order form?** Yes. Point any location's
  Order button at a different form, for example a menu per branch.
- **Where do orders and bookings go?** To the same place as every other
  response to that form: your Instaform inbox and your email alert. Contact
  forms also add the customer to your customer list. Each response shows which
  location it came from.
- **Can I put the map on my website?** Yes. Paste a short piece of code into
  any site that lets you add code, or share your map's own link.
- **How many locations can I add?** It depends on your plan. See pricing for
  the current numbers.
- **Do visitors need an app?** No. The map works in any browser, on phones
  first.
- **Can I change the buttons later?** Any time. Your map usually shows the
  change within a minute or two.
