Best Free Odds APIs

Odds API covering US, UK, EU and AU books, exchanges and DFS sites.

Free: 500 API credits a month covering all sports, most bookmakers (incl. Pinnacle and exchanges) and all markets. We use it ourselves.

Catch: It's a developer API: you build the tool. Player props cover selected US sports and books.

Developer odds, scores and stats API priced per game, not per market: spreads, totals, player props, live odds and fair odds. Paid plans cover 77–82 books.

Free: Amateur API plan: 2,500 objects a month (one object = one game with all its odds), 10 requests a minute, odds refreshed every 10 minutes, 8 leagues (NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, college football and basketball, Champions League, MLS) and 9 US books. Spreads, moneylines, totals, player and team props, live odds, fair odds, scores and stats are all included. The free plan is never charged, but a card is required at signup.

Catch: It's a developer API: you build the tool. The free tier has no Pinnacle or other sharp book, only 9 US books, and 10-minute-old odds. Needs a card to sign up.
