Odds API alternative

Looking for an odds API alternative?

If your users bet with UK bookmakers, you want UK bookmaker coverage. Here are the endpoints, sample JSON, bookmakers covered, and a live preview so you can validate the response shape quickly.

What most products need
/events
/odds
/odds/best

Use /odds/best when you’re building comparison tables, alerts, or anything “best odds” driven.

Endpoints

Copy‑paste these requests.

GET /v1/football/events?schedule_date=YYYY-MM-DD&has_odds=true&upcoming=true&per_page=10

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 returned by the events endpoint.

Sample JSON

Usually it means you want an odds feed that fits your market (UK bookmakers) and returns a consistent schema so your product doesn’t break when you add markets or bookmakers.

What endpoints do most products need?

Start with events (`/v1/football/events`), then fetch odds (`/odds`) or best odds (`/odds/best`) for comparisons and alerts.

Which bookmakers are included?

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

We update odds every minute.
