Frequently Asked Questions

What sports and leagues do you cover?

We cover over 100 sports, including football (soccer), basketball, tennis, American sports, and a vast array of esports, translating to thousands of live events per month globally.

How do you deliver live odds?

Live in-play odds and match state updates are pushed to your systems via secure WebSocket connections, ensuring sub-second latency which is critical for minimizing risk during live betting.

Yes. The API sends definitive settlement messages the moment an event concludes or a market is determined, allowing your sportsbook to automatically pay out winning bets instantly.

Can we customize the margin on the odds feed?

The data API delivers raw probabilities and base odds. Your sportsbook platform or trading team can then apply customized margin rules and risk management algorithms on top of the feed.
