The Full Order Book, Not Just a Price

Every selection carries three levels of market depth on both sides. The back ladder shows the best prices you can bet for an outcome; the lay ladder shows the prices you can bet against it. Liquidity is the amount actually matchable at each price — so you can measure spread, depth, and market efficiency, or feed it straight into an arbitrage model against fixed-odds bookmakers.

Why Use PulseScore for Orbit Exchange Data

True Exchange Odds — Back & Lay

Orbit Exchange is a Betfair-style betting exchange. Every selection arrives with full back and lay price ladders — up to three price rungs each side with real liquidity figures — the same order-book data traders see on the exchange, not just a single fixed price.

The Sharpest Prices in the Market

Exchange prices are set by traders, not a bookmaker's margin. That makes Orbit odds the closest thing to the market's true probability — ideal as a pricing baseline for arbitrage scanners, value-bet finders, and closing-line-value analysis against the fixed-odds books.

Live WebSocket Streaming

Real-time push of every in-play event for the chosen sport, broadcast roughly every second — back/lay ladders and liquidity included. PRO, MAX, and ULTRA plans only. All markets use canonical naming (MATCH_RESULT, OVER_UNDER, ASIAN_HANDICAP) so there are no mapping headaches.

30-Day Results Archive

Every match that goes in-play is mirrored into a 30-day results archive and updated in place — score and match clock on soccer, tennis and basketball, cards and corners on soccer, per-set games on tennis. Filter by sport, league, country and team, and discover the exact filter values through /results/sports, /results/countries and /results/leagues.

Horse Racing & Greyhound Cards

The full exchange race card in off-time order — UK, Irish, Australian, French, US and South African horse racing plus British, Irish and Australian greyhounds. Runners carry price ladders with liquidity, jockey and trainer on the horses, trap numbers on the dogs, and an optional country filter narrows the card to one region.

One Key, All Bookmakers

A single API key unlocks every bookmaker included in your plan — Orbit Exchange, Bet365, BetOnline, Fanduel, Bwin, and more. Compare exchange prices against fixed odds with one integration.

Frequently Asked Questions

What data does the Orbit Exchange API provide?

PulseScore provides pre-match and live exchange odds from Orbit Exchange (orbitxch.com) across 16 sports, plus horse racing and greyhound race cards and a 30-day results archive. Each selection includes the best back price plus full back and lay ladders — up to three price rungs per side with the liquidity available at each price — and a suspended flag.

What sports are covered?

The 16 sports Orbit Exchange publishes markets for: Soccer, Tennis, Cricket, Basketball, Baseball, Ice Hockey, American Football, Australian Rules, Boxing, Darts, Esports, Gaelic Games, Golf, Rugby League, Rugby Union, and Volleyball. Each sport exposes /leagues, /leagues/:league/events, /events (paginated), and /events/:eventId — for golf a league is the tournament, and every golf event is an outright book with empty home and away. Horse racing and greyhounds have their own race-card endpoints: /horse-racing/races, /horse-racing/countries, /greyhounds/races and /greyhounds/countries.

How is exchange data different from bookmaker odds?

A bookmaker publishes one fixed price per selection with a built-in margin. An exchange is an order book: you see back prices (bet for) and lay prices (bet against) with the liquidity available at each level. The spread between best back and best lay shows how efficient the market is, and the liquidity shows how much can actually be matched.

How are the markets structured?

All markets use a canonical format: each market has a type (e.g., MATCH_RESULT, OVER_UNDER, ASIAN_HANDICAP), period (FULL_TIME, FIRST_HALF), and selections. Each selection carries odds (best back), a back array and lay array of {price, liquidity} rungs, and a suspended flag. The same structure is used across all sports.

Does the Orbit Exchange API cover horse racing and greyhounds?

Yes. GET /api/orbitxch/horse-racing/races returns the live card in off-time order for the UK, Ireland, Australia, France, the USA and South Africa, and GET /api/orbitxch/greyhounds/races covers British, Irish and Australian greyhound tracks. Both accept an optional ISO-2 country filter and expose a /countries endpoint listing the codes currently on the card. Runners carry exchange price ladders with liquidity — back prices on horses, back and lay on greyhounds — plus jockey and trainer on horse racing and trap numbers on greyhounds. Racing is HTTP-only: a race in running stays on these endpoints with isInPlay set to true rather than moving to the WebSocket.

Is there a free tier?

Yes. The BASIC plan is free and includes 500 API requests per month. Upgrade to PRO, MAX, or ULTRA for unlimited requests.

Can I access Orbit Exchange alongside other bookmakers with the same API key?

Yes. A single API key gives you access to every bookmaker included in your plan — Orbit Exchange, Bet365, BetOnline, Betano(DE), Fanduel, Bwin, and more. No need for separate keys or accounts.

How do I authenticate with the API?

Sign up for a free account, generate an API key from your dashboard, and pass it via the X-Secret header. The same key works for all bookmaker APIs.

Does Orbit Exchange support live in-play data?

Yes. Live in-play events are available via REST (/api/orbitxch/live-events, /live-events/sports, /live-events/events/:eventId) and via WebSocket at wss://api.pulsescore.net/api/orbitxch/ws/live. The WebSocket pushes every in-play event for the subscribed sport roughly every second, with live back/lay ladders. PRO, MAX, and ULTRA plans only.

Does the API include match results?

Yes. Every match Orbit Exchange takes in-play is mirrored into a 30-day results archive from its first sighting and updated in place. Results filter by sport, league, country and team, and /results/sports, /results/countries and /results/leagues expose the exact filter values. Result documents carry no markets. The exchange publishes no settlement marker: matchClock.periodId reads Finished on ended soccer, tennis and basketball matches, and score is present on those three sports only.
