The two calls most products start with
/v1/football/events
/v1/football/events/{event_id}/odds

Fetch fixtures for a date, then request odds for the event you care about.

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

Replace EVENT_ID with an event_id returned by the events endpoint.

Sample JSON

A typical event odds response (one schema across bookmakers).

  "bookmakers": [
    { "code": "UO004", "name": "Bet365" },
    { "code": "UO002", "name": "Betfair" }
  ],
  "markets": [
    {
      "key": "btts",
      "outcomes": [
        { "name": "Yes", "odds": 1.80, "bookmaker_code": "UO004" },
        { "name": "No", "odds": 2.10, "bookmaker_code": "UO004" }
