  BT Group plc (British Telecommunications) is the United Kingdom's largest
  fixed-line, broadband, and mobile communications provider, headquartered in
  London with operations spanning consumer, business, wholesale, and global
  enterprise markets. The group is organised around three customer-facing
  brands — BT, EE, and Plusnet — and a wholesale division that sells capacity
  and access to other communications providers. BT Group operates the UK's
  largest mobile network (EE), runs fibre and copper access through Openreach
  (a legally separate group company), and provides networked IT and security
  services to multinational enterprises and the UK public sector. The group
  publishes a public developer programme at developer.bt.com that exposes a
  growing catalogue of REST APIs across two main domains: charging and
  crediting (Direct Carrier Billing, Crediting, Premium SMS) and digital
  identity / fraud prevention (SIM Swap, Network Identity, Call Divert
  Protection), alongside wholesale and operational APIs (Broadband One,
  Quote Management, Address Management, Appointment Management, Product and
  Network Availability, HubCo Voice, Global Voice Services, IMEI Lookup,
  Home Network, Rail Insights, Location Insights for London, and a Travel
  Journey API Platform). The portal supports sandbox onboarding with Client
  ID / Client Secret OAuth 2.0 credentials and progression to production
  under a commercial agreement with an account team. In April 2025 BT
  announced a federated API management partnership with Kong (Kong Konnect)
  to consolidate its previously fragmented API estate, strengthen
  governance, and offer a self-service developer experience across the
  group.
