Dancerace’s Jon Watts briefs Georgiana Campbell on what lenders need to know about API’s, and how to get the most from the Dancerace API.

This episode is perfect for lenders who keep hearing the term API and want to know what it means for their business. It's also ideal for Dancerace customers who are thinking about building bespoke functionality or integrating a system into the Dancerace platform using our API.

This podcast is not a technical deep-dive into our API. It's a conceptual overview. If you're a CTO or a CIO, please speak to us directly about our API.
