The Betway Odds API for Developers
Betway doesn't offer a public API. SharpAPI delivers real-time Betway odds, from NFL to EPL, normalized with 40+ books via one REST API, from the Hobby plan ($79/mo) up.
The best Betway odds API for developers is SharpAPI. Betway operates across 30+ countries and is particularly strong in soccer and esports markets. They have no public developer API.
SharpAPI aggregates Betway odds alongside 39+ other sportsbooks and delivers them via a clean REST API and SSE streaming endpoint. One integration, all books, zero scraping.
Betway is carried on paid plans, from $79 to $399/month. The free tier is a fixed two-book set — DraftKings and FanDuel at 12 req/min — so a free key does not return Betway. SSE streaming is a paid add-on on top of any paid plan.
Why Betway Odds Matter

Betway offers deep soccer coverage across EPL, La Liga, Serie A, Bundesliga, Champions League, and lower-division leagues, valuable for international market data.
Multi-Market Presence
Licensed in multiple jurisdictions across Africa, Europe, and North America, Betway lines reflect diverse regional market action, a strong cross-market signal.
Competitive Margins
Betway maintains competitive vig on mainstream markets, making their lines a useful soft-book reference for +EV detection against sharp books like Pinnacle.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does SharpAPI get Betway odds?
SharpAPI aggregates Betway odds through proprietary pipelines that normalize the data into a consistent JSON schema alongside 39+ other sportsbooks. You get unified event IDs, American and decimal odds, and consistent market naming across all books.
Which sports does SharpAPI cover for Betway?
SharpAPI covers Betway odds for NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, and major soccer leagues including EPL, La Liga, Champions League, and Bundesliga. Betway is particularly strong in soccer coverage, making it a valuable data point for European market comparisons.
Is Betway data available on the free tier?
No. The free tier is limited to DraftKings and FanDuel. Betway is available on paid plans starting at $79/mo (Hobby), where you pick 5 of the 40+ sportsbooks including Betway. SSE streaming is a separate paid add-on you can attach to any paid plan; it is not included in the plan itself and is never available on the free tier.
Can I detect +EV against Betway lines?
Yes. On Pro ($229/mo) and Sharp ($399/mo) plans, SharpAPI's +EV engine benchmarks every Betway line against Pinnacle no-vig fair value. When Betway's line beats fair odds, it appears in the /ev endpoint automatically.
