FAQ

Still got questions?

How does the API work?

UK Odds API is a REST API that returns JSON. You send your API key with each request, pick fixtures and markets from the paths or query parameters, and receive normalised odds from UK bookmakers in one response shape. You can try calls in our live OpenAPI (Swagger) page and read the full reference before you write any integration code.

Which bookmakers are included?

All major UK bookmakers, including Bet365, Betfair, Paddy Power, Sky Bet, William Hill, Coral, Ladbrokes, Betway, 888sport, Unibet, and Spreadex.

See the full list on our coverage page: View bookmaker coverage. For API field definitions, see the documentation.

What football leagues do you cover?

We cover major football leagues worldwide — including the UK leagues, Europe’s top competitions, and many more — based on what UK bookmakers actually offer odds on.

See the current list on our coverage page: View league coverage.

How do the paid plans differ?

Starter suits early builds: 10 UK bookmakers, core markets, and a solid hourly quota.

Pro adds full bookmaker coverage, core and advanced markets, and historical odds.

Business adds football specials, higher request limits, and the arbitrage endpoints.

Do you have an arbitrage API?

Yes — we provide a football arbitrage feed that returns active 2-way opportunities for a date, and an endpoint for a single event. Responses include the market, the best two legs (bookmaker codes + odds), and an optional stake split for plug-and-play bet placement.

You can call /v1/football/arbitrage?date=YYYY-MM-DD (day feed) or /v1/football/events/{event_id}/arbitrage (single event). Access depends on your plan.

Do you provide historical odds?

Yes. Historical odds endpoints are available on Pro and Business plans so you can build charts, alerts, and backtests from real odds movements.

What's the difference between core and advanced markets?

Core markets are the main match odds: match winner, over/under, both teams to score, double chance, draw no bet, and handicaps.

Advanced markets add deeper coverage when available: corners, cards, team props, player props, and bookmaker-specific lines. Football specials (non-fixture topics) are available on the Business plan.

You can browse every supported market here: View market coverage.

How often are odds updated?

We update odds every minute.

Your plan controls request volume and access to premium endpoints (like arbitrage and history), but the data feed itself is continuously refreshed.

What counts as an API request?

Each HTTP call you make to our API counts towards the limits on your plan (for example, requests per hour on Starter, Pro, or Business). Your dashboard shows usage so you can stay within quota.

Can I try the API before I pay?

Yes. Create an account, choose a plan, generate an API key, and then use the Swagger playground at api.ukoddsapi.com/docs to test endpoints in your browser.

You can copy working requests straight from Swagger into Postman, Node, or Python once you’re happy with the response shape.
