How fast is your live data?
Scores are available live and updated in real-time. So, in many cases it is faster than live tv (<15 seconds). More detailed data undergoes a verification process that runs 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and is updated in the API as fast (and almost always faster) than other data providers.
What's your uptime track record?
We monitor our systems by constantly performing live API and web page tests. We do this to make sure all the data entered by our analysts is available via our APIs. We are live near 100% and dedicated to monitoring our systems, especially in weekends when most matches are live.
What if we need a unique set of data points or stats?
Get only the data you need! Sportmonks users can customise the parameters of their data using filters or by requesting a custom setup.
As users, what if we get stuck and need help?
Our responsive customer support team is a trademark of our business. So, whether you're using our 5-star user documentation or chatting with our agents, you can get applications up and running in no time.
What if we’re not satisfied with the product?
