react-native-maps using openstreepmaps tile overlay - fees - openstreetmap

Billing account (api key) needs to be set up when using OSM tiles in react-native-maps. Does Google charge any fees when using this solution? Are there any request sent to google maps?

The selected project and billing account cannot pay for Maps in your region. Select an existing project that is paid for by a Maps billing account

This problem happens after enabling the billing method using a Pakistani Credit Card, and Billing details also fill up as Pakistani Addresses.
The selected project and billing account cannot pay for Maps in your region. Select an existing project that is paid for by a Maps billing account.
I have this problem while creating a Flutter Application using Google Map SDK.
Solution:
I have searched several sites and discovered that the problem is due to creating Pakistani Billing Addresses.
Why does this problem happen?
Google Cloud Console supports INR, USD and Rupee, but for using Google Map SDK / Enabling Map Billing, the account has to be USD Support.
How to solve this ?
First of all, check if you've enabled the API you're trying to use, or second, you must check the billing account type, go to an overview of your billing account, and there you'll find it. If it is a cloud console type, then you've to create another project and link it with another billing account with maps (that's what I've done, and still trying to find a way to merge both of them) and, most importantly, maps billing account won't in INR it'll be USD, The INR is allowed only of cloud console billing account not on Maps Platform.

Square API to create merchant account?

I am creating an app where sellers can sign up on an app, and sell products (think Etsy). Local users can view and purchase the product from the seller.
What would be the best approach for doing this? I was looking at the Square API. I looked through Square's Merchant API but could not find an endpoint to create a new Merchant account (which I would ideally create for each seller). Another option might be to create one Merchant account (for the app) and a new Location for each seller. Does this seem like a good idea?
At this time the ability to create merchant accounts with Square APIs isn't currently available. We’re constantly working to improve our features based on feedback like this, so I’ll be sure to share your request to the API product team.
It isn't recommended to have all payments run through one Square account cause you'd have to deal with all of the chargeback risk for every payment and all the payouts of funds to the sellers.

How to add currency to digital wallet through Uber APIs?

I've a question related to Uber API's payment methods.
In India, Uber API allows 3 types of payments:
1. credit card
2. Paytm
3. cash
For payment method 2 - Paytm - I would like to know how to programmatically through Uber APIs add currency to the digital wallet? The Uber app allows adding of currency in the digital wallet - paytm.
I went through the Uber API documentation and it wasn't clear that this functionality could be done through the API.
So, I'm wondering whether the same functionality is possible through Uber APIs and if yes, how?
There is currently no way to add any digital currency through the Uber API.

Process magnetic stripe data through PayPal API

Is it possible to process an authorization/payment through PayPal's API using the card magnetic stripe data rather than populating number and other fields? I'm aware that I can parse the track data and supply the fields they are requesting, but that is still processed as a card-not-present/eCommerce payment with a higher fee than if the payment was processed with the track data.
PayPal does have a POS API that allows you to send track data over to PayPal so it's treated as card-present, however, you don't get the lower fee. PayPal does. You still pay the 1.9 - 2.9 that you qualify for based on your volume.
Also, that API is only open to a few PayPal Partners. If you're an official PayPal Partner let me know and I can get you some more details.
