GiveRadar API plans
One REST API and MCP server for 7.9 million+ nonprofits across 100+ countries, with provenance on every field. Start free with an instant key, upgrade when your volume does. Paid API access is what funds the free platform, so every request you buy keeps charity data free for everyone else.
Designed for testing and personal use; the 10-request daily limit applies per account and API key. Requests above it return 429 until the next reset, with no automatic charges.
Create free accountThe same API, with access that grows with you
The integrity assessment (0-100, disclosure-based, never for sale) and GiveRadar Analysis are returned on charity detail responses wherever we have them, on the free tier too.
Each record names its official source, so what you show your users is traceable, whatever your tier.
An OpenAPI specification, a public health endpoint, and the hosted MCP server for AI agents.
Field access by tier
Paid tiers buy volume and field access, never different answers: the API serves the same data as the website on every plan.
Public interest access
Journalists, academic researchers, and qualifying public-interest projects can request expanded access at no cost: info@giveradar.com. Our methodology documentation is published under CC-BY 4.0, and the per-country source list is public on the data sources page.
Commercial questions
How much does the GiveRadar API cost?
The GiveRadar API has a free tier (10 requests per day with an instant key), a Pro tier at $99 per month with 10,000 requests per day and full field access, and custom Enterprise plans from 100,000 requests per day. Prices are per key, with no overage charges: requests beyond your cap return 429 until the daily reset.
What is included in the free API tier?
The free tier returns basic fields (name, country, category, and the integrity assessment) plus the GiveRadar Analysis on charity detail responses, at 10 requests per day. It is a test allowance: the cap applies per key and per IP across all free keys. Financials, officers, and contact details require Pro.
Can I use GiveRadar data commercially?
Yes, on a paid tier and under our terms: attribute GiveRadar, do not resell raw bulk data as your own dataset, and respect the provenance model (records cite their official sources). For bulk licensing beyond the API, see charity datasets.
Do journalists and researchers get free access?
Yes. Working journalists and academic researchers can request expanded free access by emailing info@giveradar.com with a note about the story or study and the volume needed.
Can charities pay for better API results?
No. The API serves the same data as the website, and neither placement nor the integrity assessment can be bought. Paid tiers buy volume and field access, never different answers.
