Bet365 Odds API. Base: https://zen-studio--bet365-real-time-odds.apify.actor Auth: ?token=APIFY_TOKEN (get at https://console.apify.com/account/integrations). Endpoints: GET /sports (all sports with slugs), GET /competitions?sport=X (competitions for a sport), GET /competition/{id}?sport=X (match odds for a competition, id=slug like nba or england-premier-league), GET /match/{id}?tab=X (full match detail with all markets and player props, tabs: popular/asian/goals/half/corners/specials), GET /search?q=X (search matches/teams), GET /inplay (in-play schedule), GET /outrights?sport=X (futures catalog), GET /outright/{id} (outright odds), POST /day-pass (activate $6.99/24h unlimited pass with real-time data), GET /day-pass (check pass status). All odds endpoints accept odds_format=decimal|fractional|american. With Day Pass active: all endpoints free, /inplay and /match/{id} serve ~1ms real-time data. Competition slugs: nba ncaab nhl mlb afl england-premier-league england-championship scotland-premiership euroleague.

Also available as an MCP server — add zen-studio/bet365-real-time-odds for natural language access.

FAQ

What is Standby mode? The actor runs as an always-on HTTP server. No queue, no cold start. Apify keeps it warm and routes requests directly. You get sub-second response times. See the Standby tab on the actor page for the hostname.

How much does Standby mode cost to keep running? You don't pay anything while it's idle. The actor sleeps automatically after a period of no requests and wakes up on the next call (cold start takes 2-3 seconds). You only pay compute for hours it's actually running. At 256 MB, that's roughly $0.10/hour. If you make a few requests per day, you'll barely notice it on your bill.

What odds formats are supported? Decimal (default), fractional, and American. Pass odds_format=fractional or odds_format=american on any odds endpoint. Decimal is always included regardless of the format you choose.

How do I find competition IDs? Start with /sports to get sport slugs. Then /competitions?sport=soccer to get competition slugs and IDs. 56 competitions have human-readable slugs like england-premier-league or nba. All others use opaque IDs.

What markets are available on /match/{id}? Every market Bet365 offers for that match. This typically includes: Full Time Result, Double Chance, Both Teams to Score, Over/Under, Asian Handicap, Correct Score, Half Time/Full Time, Player Props (goals, assists, cards, shots), Corners, Specials, and more. Use the tab parameter to filter by category.

Can I get historical odds? No. This actor returns current live odds only. Odds change continuously and are not stored historically.

How often should I poll for odds updates? Odds update frequently, especially close to kickoff and during live events. Every 1-5 minutes is typical for pre-match monitoring. For in-play odds, every 30-60 seconds. With a Day Pass, you can poll every few seconds at no extra cost.

What is the Day Pass? A one-time $6.99 charge that gives you 24 hours of unlimited access to all endpoints with no per-request fees. /inplay and /match/{id} serve real-time data. Activate with POST /day-pass.

What happens when my Day Pass expires? You seamlessly fall back to per-request pricing ($0.003/call). No errors, no downtime. The next POST /day-pass activates a new 24-hour window.

Is the Day Pass per user or per actor? Per user. Each Apify account gets its own Day Pass timer. Multiple users can each have their own active pass.

Why is the Day Pass so much faster? Without a Day Pass, each request fetches live data on demand. With a Day Pass, data is always fresh and responses are faster.

Can I increase the standby idle timeout? Yes. Create a Task from this actor and set a custom idle timeout in the Standby tab. Higher timeouts keep the actor alive longer between requests but increase compute costs. The default (300 seconds) works well for polling every 30-60 seconds.

What's the difference between /competition/{id} and /match/{id}? /competition/{id} returns all matches in a competition with headline odds (1X2, spread, total). /match/{id} returns full market depth for a single match, including player props, corners, specials, and every other available market.

Are in-play odds available? Yes. Matches that are currently in play have live odds. Use /inplay to find active events, then /match/{id} for live market prices.

What's the difference between this and the Bet365 Live Scores actor? This actor provides betting odds and markets. The Live Scores actor provides real-time scores, lineups, events, and match statistics. Different data, different use cases. Use both together for a complete picture.

Can I use slugs everywhere? Slugs work on /competition/{id} for the 56 hardcoded competitions. For /match/{id} and /outright/{id}, use the opaque IDs returned by the discovery endpoints.
