I would like to use a screenshot of google maps on my company's website. But im not sure they allow using the maps besides through their api. Maybe it's ok if the image points to the google website?

It isn't allowed. You have to use the Google Maps API or ask for a High Res Screenshot directly to Google.com

openstreetmap.org has a more permissive license. See "How to credit OpenStreetMap" at openstreetmap.org/copyright – Nicolas Raoul Apr 2 at 4:39
