/odds/best

Use /best for compact tables; use /odds for full bookmaker grids.

What comparison products need

Side-by-side UK odds, without a scraper farm.

An odds comparison product lives or dies on coverage and consistency. UK Odds API returns the UK books your users know (Bet365, Sky Bet, Paddy Power, and more) as JSON. Use full grids when you want every price, or best odds when you only need the top line per selection.

Fixtures first

List today’s (or any date’s) events with has_odds=true, then loop the event_ids you care about.

Full bookmaker grids

Pull /odds for every bookmaker on a market - same keys and codes across Bet365, Paddy Power, and the rest.

Best odds helper

One row per outcome with the top UK odds and bookmaker code - fast enough for tables, scanners, and alerts.

Build more on top

Same feed powers comparison, arbs, and +EV tools - link out to the arbitrage and valuebet product pages when you need those patterns.

Endpoints for an odds comparison product

The calls comparison apps actually hit.

GET /v1/football/events?schedule_date=YYYY-MM-DD&has_odds=true&per_page=25

GET /v1/football/events/EVENT_ID/odds?package=core&odds_format=decimal

GET /v1/football/events/EVENT_ID/odds/best?odds_format=decimal

Replace EVENT_ID with an event_id from the events endpoint.

FAQ

Odds comparison API - FAQ

What is an odds comparison API?

Usually it means an odds feed that lets you compare bookmakers in one JSON schema. UK Odds API provides that feed - you build the comparison product on /odds and /odds/best.

Is there a dedicated /comparison endpoint?

No. Use `/odds` for full grids and `/odds/best` for top odds per outcome.

Should I use /odds or /odds/best?

Use `/odds` when you need the full bookmaker grid. Use `/odds/best` when you want comparison-ready best odds per outcome.

Which bookmakers are included?

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

Can I try the API before I pay?

Yes. Create an account and subscribe to a plan, then explore endpoints in the Swagger playground at api.ukoddsapi.com/docs.
