How odds comparison works in Australian products

A useful odds API for Australia should cover the bookmakers and sports your users actually care about: AFL, NRL, basketball, tennis, cricket, football and racing where relevant. Broad global coverage is helpful, but it is not a substitute for local bookmaker depth.

Odds comparison works by normalising each event and outcome, then showing the current price from each bookmaker and the best available price. From there you can build widgets, dashboards, model feeds, price alerts and market monitors.

Before committing, check authentication, JSON response shape, example requests, pricing tiers, credit limits and commercial data-use terms. Keep responsible-gambling language visible for betting-adjacent products.
