The document discusses APIs provided by JustGiving, the largest fundraising website in the UK. It notes key stats about JustGiving's user base and funds raised. It then outlines the history and new features of the JustGiving APIs, including SDKs, documentation, and tools to help developers build applications. A prize is offered for the best app using the JustGiving API, and examples of existing integrations are provided. Future plans are discussed to reduce friction and support more advanced integrations.
