UK bookmakers API

Looking for a UK bookmakers API?

Here’s how to pull a UK bookmaker list and query UK bookmaker odds using one consistent REST API — endpoints, example JSON, and coverage.

Start with the bookmaker list
/v1/bookmakers
bookmaker_codes=UO004,UO018

Use bookmaker codes to filter odds to specific UK bookmakers.

How it’s used

Stable coverage + predictable filters.

UK products usually need two things: a reliable list of bookmakers (for UI filters and logos) and a way to fetch odds for a set of bookmakers in one call. The endpoints below are designed for that exact flow.

Coverage

Render a “bookmakers covered” page using the bookmakers list.

Filtering

Use bookmaker codes to request only the bookmakers you care about.

Endpoints

Copy‑paste these requests.

GET /v1/bookmakers

GET /v1/football/events?schedule_date=YYYY-MM-DD&has_odds=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 compact example response you can use for coverage + filtering.

{
  "bookmakers": [
    { "code": "UO004", "name": "Bet365" },
    { "code": "UO002", "name": "Betfair" },
    { "code": "UO018", "name": "Paddy Power" }
  ],
  "note": "Use bookmaker codes in odds queries: bookmaker_codes=UO004,UO018"
}

What is a UK bookmakers API?

It’s an API that gives you bookmaker coverage (a list of bookmakers + identifiers) and bookmaker odds in a consistent JSON schema for UK-facing products.

How do I get the bookmaker list?

Call `GET /v1/bookmakers`. Use the returned codes in odds queries via the `bookmaker_codes` parameter.

Can I filter odds to specific bookmakers?

Yes. Pass `bookmaker_codes=UO###,UO###` on the odds endpoints to return only the bookmakers you want.

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.
