Tithe.ly

Tithe.ly is a church technology platform for online and mobile giving, church management (ChMS), branded church apps, websites, events, and messaging. Its developer API lets churches and approved partners create donations, tokenize cards and bank accounts for PCI-safe payments, charge one-time and recurring gifts, manage giving funds (payment categories), and look up organizations. API access is gated - it is granted by request to organizations that use (or are moving to) Tithe.ly, and approved requesters receive public and private API keys by email. There are two documented generations - a V1 payments/tokenization API (Tithely.js plus charge endpoints) and a V2 REST API (organizations, transactions, funds, and mail).

Tithe.ly publishes 6 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Accounts API, Mail API, Organizations API, and 3 more. Tagged areas include Church Giving, Donations, Fundraising, Payments, and Non-Profit.

Tithe.ly’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, and 8 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Payments regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it.

Markets this provider is in provisional

The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.

Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted. Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.
