BETFAIR DATA
We know that automated strategies are only as good as your data. There’s a huge variety of historic pricing data available for almost any race or sport – you can take a look at our explanation of the different data sources if you’re not quite sure where to start. We’ve also shared some tips on learning to create predictive models using this data, which link in with the models shared on our main Github page.
- API for downloading historic data files(quicker than manually downloading)
Learn from a pair of experts
Betfair had a chat with two of its top automated betting clients, Tom Bishop and Jonathan Lowe, to dive into their background in automated betting and how they got to where they are now.
Are you ready to compete with traders and data analysts on the world’s biggest betting exchange?
access our API
As you may already know, Betfair has its own API to allow you to integrate your program into the Exchange. Many of our most successful clients bet exclusively through this by placing automated bets using custom software.
There are lots of resources available to support you in accessing the API effectively:
- Developer Forumwhere you can share your experiences and find out what’s worked for other clients
- Exchange Sports API visualiserfor testing market-related queries
- Exchange Account API visualiserfor testing account-related queries
- Our Github repo including an R library for using our API
- The UK’s Github repoincluding libraries for other languages
Betfair Telegram App
Unfortunately, the sign up process can feel overwhelming to some people. To help facilitate your journey, we’ve created this a guide to accessing our API.
third party apps
Whilst the following tools are not custom, they do allow you to automate your betting strategies. You just set up specific betting conditions and let the third party application do the work for you. The following three are probably the most popular with Betfair customers.
We’re putting together a collection of articles on how to use some of these third party tools to automate basic strategies, to give you a starting point that you can then work from.

I have recently been testing a new, more simplified way of selecting my lay the draw selections and boy has it been effective.
Not only am I spending less time finding games, but I’m also finding more winners, in turn increasing my strike rate and profits.
Since the 6th of March, I’ve selected 15 LTD2 trades (all published on the website and Telegram channel) and made over 4 pts profit.
It would have been more but came out just before HT in the Juve game with Lazio 1-0 up for a small loss, only to see Juventus score three goals before 60′. Never mind, it’s all about being consistent. Some you win, some you lose.
