The PuntersEdge API: 15 racing bookmakers, 92 endpoints, one key.
For punters who model their own bets, tipping and form sites that show prices to their subscribers, and businesses that need the market in their own systems.
Live prices, results, form and the closing-line archive for Australian and New Zealand racing (and racing in Britain, Ireland and South Africa on smaller panels), with AFL, NRL and other Australian sports on the same key, as REST and JSON with Python and Node clients and an MCP server. Below: what each endpoint returns, what it costs in credits, and which plan unlocks it. Don’t take our coverage on trust: 15 of 15 Australian books quoting now, a median of 14 seconds since each was last read, and 88% of this week’s results with every runner placed where a full-field source exists. Verify every figure.
Free tier, no credit card. Paid plans from A$9/month. Data is for informational and analytical use only.

In their own words.
I was skeptical the odds would be refreshed often enough to be useful. They were updated well within the timeframes I needed, and I'm refreshing the markets multiple times per minute.
Accuracy and speed are king for us, and it has ticked all our boxes. The place prices have been a nice addition, as our previous source only carried win prices.
If you're past thoroughbreds and need greyhound form or harness results without gluing three sources together, this is the piece that fills the gap.
The data is clean and consistent, and it held up from testing into live without changes on my side. The live prices power the price column on every race, and best odds and next-to-go give me what I need in two calls per poll.
The big issue for me with price providers is bookie availability and then stale prices. The data I download through the day is available, up to date and accurate, and being able to use webhooks at a reasonable price has enabled functionality I didn't have before. I've used all of the others and PuntersEdge really has hit a sweet spot.
I was unsure whether a relatively new API would have the coverage and consistency to build on across full Australian race cards. The breadth was better than I expected, and having acceptances, results, horse data and market data through the one API has been worth more than any single endpoint. There have been gaps, but they have been visible rather than hidden, and genuine issues have been investigated and fixed rather than brushed off.
My main concern was whether the API data would reconcile reliably enough with the other racing data First4 Pro uses, because a silent mismatch could contaminate the analysis. In one validation run First4 Pro matched all 41 active runners across five races with no ambiguous matches.
My main question was whether the data would have enough depth, granularity and stable identifiers to build a proper quantitative racing and backtesting platform around it, rather than simply being another odds and results feed. It's been much more comprehensive than I initially expected. The permanent price-path history is the standout: following price changes by bookmaker and linking them through runner_ref to results, closing lines and horse form is particularly useful for the type of quantitative research I'm building.

Rather not write the HTTP layer? Four official clients, all MIT licensed and open source: Python (pip install puntersedge 0.4.0) with typed methods for the core racing and sports odds endpoints and a puntersedge-arb scanner; TypeScript & JavaScript (npm install puntersedge 1.3.0), which also covers results, price history, form, the closing-line archive, webhooks and bulk files, with zero dependencies and types generated from the live OpenAPI schema, running on Node, Deno, Bun and Cloudflare Workers (it also runs in a browser, but a key must not: route browser traffic through your own server or use the widget); an MCP server (pip install puntersedge-mcp) that gives Claude, Cursor or Copilot read-only tools over live prices, results, form and the closing-line archive; and a Postman collection beside the OpenAPI document. Or use any HTTP client — the API is plain REST and JSON.

Built Australian-first, not bolted on.
Most global odds APIs treat Australian markets as an afterthought — partial bookmaker coverage, no local racing, and no arbitrage maths. PuntersEdge is built around the books, racing and markets Australian developers actually need.
| PuntersEdge | Typical global odds API | |
|---|---|---|
| 15 Australian racing bookmakers (Sportsbet, BetGold, PointsBet, BetRight, BoostBet…) | Full | Partial / none |
| Horse, greyhound & harness racing | Yes | Rarely |
| Arbitrage & best-price comparison, pre-computed | Yes | No |
| Free tier, no credit card | Yes — 3,000 credits/mo | Varies |
| Australian timezone & market focus | Yes | Global-generic |

API FAQ
Is there a free API key?
How do I authenticate requests?
X-API-Key header on every request. There are no OAuth flows or signing steps — see the developer docs.What are the rate limits and credits?
/v1/usage reports what you have left.What sports and racing are covered?
soccer_epl; other soccer competitions sit under soccer_other. Plus racing: Australian thoroughbred, harness and greyhound, and New Zealand thoroughbred and harness. Racing in Britain, Ireland and South Africa runs on smaller panels through the same endpoints: a median of 4 books a race in Britain and Ireland and 5 in South Africa, against 15 on an Australian race (measured 2026-10-25 over 7 days); results there give the finishing order without dividends. See the UK & Irish and South African sections. Per-sport depth is shallower than racing and follows the season — see the full coverage list.Can I use it commercially?
How fresh is the odds data?
age_seconds on every quote and data_age_seconds for the oldest book on a race. Big Bash (1 books, 3 fixtures) is ingested and quoted by a served bookmaker but is not reachable: the API 404s the key. It is measured here and excluded from the coverage table rather than counted as coverage. Connector freshness and audit status are at /v1/data-quality/summary; note it reports only the connectors your key can actually read — the Betfair Exchange and Pinnacle reference feeds are withheld there too, so the count you see is the served set, not every feed we ingest.Get your API key and start testing.
