Introduction — SockOdds API
Welcome to SockOdds. We provide pre-match odds, event status, results and deeplinks for every Australian bookmaker and every code Australia bets on, served through this API in the SportsGameOdds v2 schema.
Whether you're working on an enterprise application or a side project, we want to make it dead simple to integrate Australian odds — and if you already integrate SportsGameOdds, we want it to take one line.
Philosophy
- Extend the standard, don't fork it. Same endpoints, envelope and oddID grammar as SportsGameOdds, so your parsers, SDKs and examples work unchanged.
- Get all the data you need with one request. One event carries every market and every bookmaker.
- Be honest about freshness. Suspended prices say so, stale events are flagged, and a plan that filtered a response tells you in
notice. - Good odds data shouldn't cost thousands a month. Plans are priced on request rate and scope, not on how much you pull.
Pricing model
We charge per event returned, not per market or bookmaker returned. A user needs 10 AFL games, each with 250 markets across 18 bookmakers: on SockOdds that is 10 objects; on a per-market-per-book API it is 45,000.
