Bet188 API for Odds
Bet188 publishes no odds API of its own, and SharpAPI does not fill that gap today: Bet188 coverage has not launched, it is not part of any plan, and we have not scheduled it. This page describes what a Bet188 integration would look like here, and which sportsbooks you can query right now.
Where this stands
Bet188 does not offer a public odds API, and SharpAPI does not carry Bet188.
- ✗ No Bet188 odds in the API today, on any plan, free or paid
- ✗ No launch date — Bet188 coverage is not scheduled
- ✓ The sportsbooks we do carry are in one endpoint and one schema
- ✓ Free tier: 12 req/min on DraftKings and FanDuel, no credit card, so you can check the book list before paying
Bet188 is not available through SharpAPI. Bet188 is an international sportsbook popular in Asian markets, known for Asian handicap pricing. It has no developer API, and SharpAPI has no Bet188 adapter, so there are no Bet188 prices to return in any format.
What SharpAPI does offer is every book it captures in one consistent schema, alongside DraftKings, Pinnacle and the rest of the sportsbooks on the catalog page. If Bet188 ever launched here, it would arrive in that same schema — but nothing on this page is a commitment that it will.
+EV detection starts on Pro ($229/mo), and the no-vig fair odds SharpAPI computes are returned with that +EV payload. Long-term historical odds are Enterprise-only. A free tier is available at $0/month with 60-second delayed data.
The Problem: No Public Bet188 API
Developers searching for a "Bet188 API" quickly discover that Bet188 does not offer a public developer API for odds data. There is no developer portal, no API key system, and no API documentation.
Some developers resort to scraping Bet188's internal endpoints. This approach is fragile, unreliable, and violates Bet188's terms of service. Their internal API changes frequently.
Building a betting app or odds comparison tool on top of unstable scraping is a recipe for constant maintenance and broken integrations. That is the problem SharpAPI solves for the books it captures — Bet188 is not currently one of them.
Why Scraping Bet188 Fails
- Internal API changes without notice, endpoints break regularly
- Aggressive bot detection and IP blocking
- Violates Bet188 terms of service
- No consistent schema, data format varies by sport and market
- Only Bet188 data, need separate scrapers for every other book
What SharpAPI Does for the Books It Carries
Normalized Schema
Every captured book lands in one consistent schema — same field names, same formats, same event matching, one integration for all of them. A Bet188 launch would arrive in that schema too.
+EV Detection
Captured lines are measured against Pinnacle's sharp no-vig odds, and ev_percent comes back on each of them. There is no Bet188 line in the feed to measure.
SSE Streaming
Line changes for the books we carry arrive over Server-Sent Events, no polling. Delivery from our edge is push-based; end-to-end freshness, which includes how often a book can be captured, varies by sportsbook and event.
Sportsbooks SharpAPI Carries Today
Bet188 is not on this list. These are books the API returns now — compare their markets, spot +EV opportunities (value betting), and detect arbitrage across them.
A sample, not the whole list — SharpAPI carries the major US sportsbooks, all normalized to the same schema.
How to Check Which Sportsbooks Are Available
There is no Bet188 code sample to give you, because a Bet188 query returns nothing. The catalog endpoint is the authoritative list of what the API carries at any moment, and it is readable on the free tier:
REST: List the available sportsbooks
curl -H 'X-API-Key: sk_live_your_key' \
'https://api.sharpapi.io/api/v1/sportsbooks'
# Returns the books SharpAPI serves, with the
# plan each one needs. Bet188 is not in the
# response — there is no Bet188 adapter.If Bet188 is essential to your use case, email hello@sharpapi.io before subscribing, so you are not paying for a book we do not have.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a Bet188 API?
No. Bet188 does not offer a public API for developers — no developer portal, no API key system, no official documentation. SharpAPI does not fill that gap today either: Bet188 coverage has not launched, it is not part of any plan, and we have not scheduled it. This page describes what a Bet188 integration would look like, not something you can query now.
How do I get Bet188 odds data?
Not from SharpAPI today — Bet188 is not one of the books we carry. Sign up, pick a plan, get an API key, and you can query the sportsbooks we do carry in a single API call; Bet188 is not among them. If Bet188 is essential to your use case, email hello@sharpapi.io before subscribing.
How does SharpAPI get Bet188 odds?
It does not. There is no Bet188 adapter, so there is no Bet188 data to normalize. The books we do carry are collected through proprietary adapters that put every book in one schema with unified field names, formats, and event matching — if Bet188 ever launched here, it would arrive in that same schema.
Can I compare Bet188 odds to other sportsbooks?
Not today: there are no Bet188 lines in the API to compare against anything. A single SharpAPI response does put the books we do carry side by side, including Pinnacle, DraftKings and FanDuel, without managing multiple data sources.
How fast are Bet188 odds updates on SharpAPI?
There are no Bet188 updates, because we do not capture the book. For supported books, delivery and source capture are separate parts of the data path. Delivery of a line change from our edge to your client is push-based over SSE streaming (a paid add-on on top of any paid plan). End-to-end freshness also depends on how often the source can be captured. Capture cadence, not transport, sets how fresh a line is.
Does SharpAPI include Bet188 live odds?
No — neither pre-match nor live. Bet188 coverage has not launched, so no Bet188 market of any kind is in the API, on any plan. Subscribing to SharpAPI will not get you Bet188 data today.
