Support Openmtbmap.org Website and Map development
I spend a lot of time working on the maps, working on this homepage and working on the OSM wiki/forums in order so that everyone can enjoy nice maps for mountainbiking. If you want to support me in doing that, then please pay a bit to motivate me to continue developing.

Note1: The login only works for either Openmtbmap or Velomap, but the premium downloads are always available on both sites. You can still post comments/questions specific to Velomap in the Velomap section on Openmtbmap and vice versa (this is due to both websites having different databases. People who pay 50€ or more, may email me and I manually copy the login to both sites.)
Note2: If you paid in the past (so you already have an account) and would like to extend your membership, please login, then you will see the prices for extension/reactivation of your account!
Just follow the Paypal Button. After payment you get a link sent by mail which enables you to create an account on OpenMTBMap.org. If you don't receive an email for login within 5 minutes after sending the payment, please look into your Spam folder. There are 2 Options 1. First year support/access to downloads for €20, then € 13 for each year. You can cancel the payment whenever you like on Paypal. (needs a credit card linked to your Paypal Account.). If you don't cancel before the year is over, the payment will continue each year - It's a subscription. 2. Pay for a fixed term. 20€ for 1 year, 35€ for 2 years ... and so on. See the dropdown box. Just choose amount/time and fill out - your username/password is directly created! I actually never get your credit card data - Your credit card information is securely handled via Stripe. Also possible to pay with Visa debit and Mastercard debit card, but not with Maestro. (I'm sorry that I need to ask for your location - this is due to EU VAT laws effective since 2015). Your Account is created instantly after Payment. Sorry - thanks to the EU VATMOSS rules I cannot offer payment via simple Bank transfer for now. There is one workaround though - you can open up a Paypal Account - wire money to it, and then use it to pay (no subscriptions - one time payments only without credit card). I really dislike this situation - but cannot change it for now as otherwise my administrative burden is far too high. I'm not a fan of PayPal at all (that's why the default gateway is Stripe) - but for now there is no better possibility if you have no credit card - or don't want to use your credit card online. For people who do not want to pay via Paypal/Credit Card, I have opened up a bank account. In case you want to receive a membership please wire the money, and send me an email with your requested Username. (note as it usually takes 2 working days for the money to be credited to the bank account I will send you your login data 2-4 days later). Once the money is credited to my account, I will send you an email with your login data ( 2-4 days later). You can also put your requested Username and your email into the reference text (replace "@" with "AT" as @ is not allowed on the reference form), this makes it easier for me. (if you don't receive an account within 5 working days, drop me a mail (my email is felix At openmtbmap.org). 20€ gets you 1 year, 35€ 2 years, 45€ 3 years, 55€ 4 years, 80€ 8 years, 100€ or more lifelong (as long as I run openmtbmap.org) Membership Access. new bank account data soon. Please don't use the old account data anymore - due to neu EU Vat regulations as of 1.1.2015 (see more about it on #Vatmoss on Twitter for example). I am working hard on offering a new solution to pay/donate via bank transfer.
My bank account data is:
Hi Felix,
laufen deine OMTB Karten auch auf dem neuen Garmin Montana 700 bzw. 700i?

Ja klar (Falls es eine Unicode Version gibt – brauchst du allerdings die Non Unicode Version).
Hallo Felix,
ich habe mir die Karte von Griechenland in englischer Sprache runtergeladen und mit thin contourlines am Labtop installiert.
Die Karte funktioniert auch auf mein Labtop (windows 10) sehr gut. Ich kann die karte im Basecamp (Version 4.7.2)normal anwenden. Ich kann sie auch auf den Speicherchip übertragen, d.h. sie kommt dort als gmapsupp.img an.Ich benenne sie um in greece.img usw.
Beim Einschalten meines gpsmaps 66s kommt nach dem hochfahren die Meldung “karten sind nicht authentisiert.Für Unterstützung an den Verkäufer wenden”
Ich habe mit den gleichen Konstellation bereits die Karten Transalpin und Croatia geladen, die einwandfrei funktionieren und auch am gpsmaps 66s sichtbar sind. Die Griechenlandkarte wird mir gar nicht zur Auswahl gestellt.
gibt es da irgenwie ein Problem mit dem Mapinstaller oder anderweitig.
Weiterhin hatte ich noch ein Problem beim Installieren von der Transalpinkarte.
Die wollte ich mit thin contourlines am Labtop installieren. Das bricht aber nach ca. 2/3 der installation ab.In der Einstellung “classic” funktioniert die installation. Wo liegt da das Problem?
LG

Du hast die Unicode Karte von Griechenland heruntergeladen. Nimm die Non Unicode – dann geht es. (Kroatien gibt es nicht in Unicode).
2. Das habe ich noch nie gehört. Probier es einfach nochmal. Evtl installiere die Alpenkarte nochmal und lade sie vorher neu herunter. Evlt ist da eine Datenfehler/Korruption passiert.
Good evening Felix.
I have no longer a membership cause I am using the site (and my bike) not so often.
I don’t want to renew the membership but if needed I will do it.
This is my problem: the map of Italy I downloaded does not appear in Basecamp (I have the latest version 4.8.8). Is this problem fixed if I download a new updated map? Cause this issue is not clear to me from the notice in your site.
Thanks in advance for your help
There is no problem with the current map of Italy, if you want me to help you out further and try to find the problem – then please renew first.
Good evening I would like to renew the subscription paying 13 euros (I am already a member). But I do not see the option of 13 Euros, but only 20 Euros. How do I do that?
Hi Marco – your account is active and you already paid the 13€ for this year (on 19. May). As soon as you login you cannot find payment information anymore – because it would mean paying twice..
Hello Felix,
Thanks for this useful websites and all the work you do with Open MTB Maps. I created an account 3-5 years ago (cant remember exactly) and paid a one time fee via paypal to be able to download Maps that I used for touring Europe at the time. it seems that starting from this year I am on a recurring payment schedule with you(???) I have never asked for this so please cancel it, or explain how I can cancel this subscription
Many thanks
Hi Robs, you created an account in 2014 – and paid for 1 year. Last year you created a new account – this time with automatic subscription, which you can chose/deselect when checking out. You now cancelled it already on paypal as I can see – so it will not renew again.
Thanks for checking. I can’t even remember creating a new account, (maybe I did), which leads to an important question: how can two accounts have the same email address and paypal account? I think I’ve been a victim of phishing, and you need to upgrade security against cyber attacks. In any case, I dont mind supporting your work this year, but you need to investigate this

Hi Robs,
your old account was on http://www.velomap.org – not on openmtbmap.org – if you check my invoices you will find out about it. Also you could have paid twice with the same email if you pay without logging in. But then you could not create a second account. But this did not happen.
I have had no security breaches on my website at all – and it is very well secured. I had a breach on my map development server about a year ago – but that did not affect the website at all as the servers are separate, not even same location – and was related to a windows rdp bug. Also the hackers only encrypted all data – and did not try to steel information. Sadly windows RDP is pretty bugged. However my website is running Ubuntu Server LTS – much better security than any windows servers and I made sure to secure it very strictly (the map development server has no user data – and I can restore/rebuild it from scratch easily – so I can live with the mediocre windows server security as it does not affect the website or any user data).
Hello,
I had forgotten I’d paid to be a member for a year quite a while ago, so I have now paid again via Paypal as a new member. But now when I log in it seems my payment today is not associated with my account. How can I associate my payment today (Apr 25) with my account, please?
The paypal account I used has the same email as the email associated with my account here, if that helps.
Thanks
I just corrected it for you, old account active again.
Ich würde gerne nochmals Mitglied werden – aber ich möchte mit PayPal nichts zu tun haben. Wenn ich überweisen könnte, würde ich das sofort für eine lebenslange Mitgliedschaft tun
I don’t like PayPal – this is the reason that I can’t make it. If you could make it possible, I would send you the Money for a Life-Numbership

Hallo Kurt,
Wenn du auf den Kreditkarten Tab wechselst – werden die Zahlungen über Stripe abgewickelt – die haben im Gegensatz zu Paypal einen sehr guten Ruf. Überweisung ist durch VATMOSS Regeln leider nicht mehr vernünftig für mich durchführbar.
Hallo Felix ich hatte dir geschrieben das ich noch bis 4.5.2021 Mitglied bin und auch bezahlt habe .
Für eine Info deiner seits were ich dankbar

Hallo Rüdiger, sorry ich kann nicht immer innerhalb von 2-3 Stunden antworten, zu deiner Frage heute früh – du hattest dich damals nicht eingeloggt – also wurde die Zahlung deinem Account nicht gutgeschrieben. Ich hab das jetzt ergänzt und dich reaktiviert.
verstehe ich nicht, ich hab am 05.09.2019 20 Euro überwiesen.
Wieso werde ich aufgefordert, jetzt wieder meine Mitgliedschaft zu verlängern?
Gruß
Lothar
Hallo Lothar,
du hast vor dem zahlen vergessen dich einzuloggen. Ich hab die Zahlungsdaten jetzt manuell eingetragen.
Hallo, grad eben habe ich für 2 Jahre 35€ per Kreditkarte bezahlt, vielleicht war ich nicht eingeloggt, obwohl ich gedacht hab ich wärs. Vieleicht kannst Du das Problem lösen. Vielen Dank und weiter schönen Restsonntag
Hallo – die Zahlung ist wohl nicht durchgegangen. Oder war es von einem anderen Namen? Wenn du keine Rechnung bekommen hast – dann ist die Zahlung nicht durchgegangen. Pass auf dass du NACH Eingeabe der Kreditkartendaten im Popup – noch zurück im alten Fenster deine Adresse eingibst – und dann mit dem gelben Pay Now Button bestätigst. Erst dann geht die Zahlung durch (Und Rechnung kommt sicher innerhalb von ein paar Minuten per email). Ansonsten via Paypal (ohne Subscription/Abo geht es auch ohne Paypal Account) ist es zuverlässiger.
