What is the difference between our Standard and Premium Odds Feed?
First, our Premium Odds feed is developed in partnership with TXOdds, a highly reputable odds provider known for its exceptional data reliability. The Premium Odds feed offers an extensive selection of 42 markets from 140+ different bookmakers.
Additionally, we meticulously document the opening odds for each fixture, and all subsequent changes and updates are recorded and made accessible for your use. This functionality enables you to track the evolution of each odd and present these changes to your customers effectively.

What is the difference in speed between the Standard and Premium Odds feed?
The pre-match odds from our Standard odds Feed are updated around every 10 minutes. It varies per bookmaker, ranging between 1 and 10 minutes. This means that (worst-case scenario) it can take up to 20 minutes before a change on the bookmakers’ site is available in our API feed.
The in-play odds are updated between 2 and 10 seconds. This means that (worst-case scenario) it can take up to 20 seconds before a change on the bookmakers’ site is available in our API feed.
The pre-match odds from our Premium Odds Feed are updated around every 1 minute. This means that (worst-case scenario) it can take up to 2 minutes before a change on the bookmakers' site is available in our API feed.
What is the difference in terms of the availability of odds?
Odds become available at different times depending on which odds feed you have access to.
Standard Odds Feed:
Bet365 odds are accessible up to three weeks before the event.
Other bookmakers’ odds typically appear two weeks before the event.
Premium Odds Feed:
All odds are generally available three weeks in advance.
This ensures our Standard Odds Feed users still have early access to Bet365 odds while Premium Odds Feed users benefit from the earliest possible available odds across all bookmakers. It’s important to note that exact availability may vary depending on individual bookmakers’ policies and the nature of the event.
How does the history of the Premium Odds Feed work?
Our Premium Odds Feed provides a history of pre-match odds for fixtures up to seven days after the match has started. Additionally, we offer a history of changes for each odd. We document the opening odds for each fixture, and subsequently, all changes and updates are stored and accessible for your use. So, every (historical) odd value is available in the API for a fixture until seven days after the match has started (the fixture's 'starting_at' timestamp).
What are 'Winning Odds'?
We currently only offer winning calculations on our Pre-Match Odds for our Standard Odds feed. We are looking to integrate these into the Premium Odds feed and Inplay odds as well.
Winning odds are calculated automatically during or after a match. Winning odds is a calculation that determines if an odd has 'won' or not. This means, for example, if the market for an odd was Over 2.5 goals and there were 3 goals in that match, the odd will be set to "winning": true. If in that match there were fewer than 3 goals, the odds will be set to "winning": false. By default, it’s set to ‘false’ and only switched to ‘true’ once it’s clear the odd is winning (for example, after the match result is known, or an ‘Over X goals’ wager that wins because the goals exceeded that number).
Please note that not all markets we cover have winning odds calculations. Every market has a flag marking whether you can expect winning odds for it. We offer winning calculations for the following markets:

How do I receive the Standard Odds as close to real-time as possible?
The best way to achieve this is to request the "odds/pre-match/latest" endpoint every 5 seconds. This way, you only get the odds that are as close as real-time. The endpoint itself returns odds that were updated within 10 seconds. So, if you request the endpoint every 10 seconds, you may miss some values because making a request also takes some time (can take around ±1 second). Within that second, you are prone to missing updates.
How do I receive Premium Odds as close to real-time as possible?
The best way to achieve this is to request the "odds/premium/updated/between" endpoint every 5 seconds, with a timestamp range of the last 10 seconds. This way, you only get the odds that are as close as real-time. The endpoint itself returns odds that were updated within the provided range. So, if you request the endpoint with a range of the last 10 seconds, every 10 seconds, you may miss some values because making a request also takes some time (can take around ±1 second). Within that second, you are prone to missing updates.
Do you store Opening and Closing odds?
For our Standard Odds Feed, we do store the odds, but only the most up-to-date value of the odds. We will explain further how this works exactly. We don't provide the official opening and closing odds because we collect the odds from our data providers at a certain time. The first value that is available in our API does not necessarily have to be the first official value of the specific bookmaker, and the exact same applies to closing odds. You must save and keep track of the odds yourself to gain insight into the odds' course. However, we do have historical tracking available in our Premium Odds Feed.
