Sportmonks’ Products: Sports APIs

Sportmonks provides sports data via our APIs. At the moment, Sportmonks offers Football, Cricket and F1 data. Besides the data for these three sports, there is more to find at Sportmonks.

Before diving in!

Before diving into our products, let us discover why Sportmonks exists. “We are here to make sports data available for everyone.” So, what does that mean? Sportmonks wants to ensure everybody can access reliable sports data for an affordable price. The reasons for this are as follows.

Back in the days when our CEO and CTO were at the beginning of their own journey, they wanted to create a fantasy game., There was only one thing in their way. Finding good data for an affordable price seemed impossible. The data was cheap and bad or great but costing a fortune.

Then, it popped into their minds: “Let’s start collecting data ourselves.” Before they knew it, they had a product they had been looking for themselves a while ago. “It was too good to keep for ourselves, so we started selling access to our collected data.”

Almost a decade later, the goal is still to provide data to a wide range of people, from single developers trying to build a hobby project to professional media agencies, sports clubs and big businesses. Everyone deserves a chance to get their hands on reliable data, and Sportmonks wants to offer this for a fair and reasonable price.

Products: APIs

You made it to our APIs. We offer three different sports via our APIs: the Football API, the Cricket API, and the F1 API.

Football API

Our Football API is the biggest of the three. It has the most (detailed) data, leagues, and features. The Football API covers over 2,200 leagues worldwide, and we keep adding new ones.

The Football API subscriptions are divided into three default plans: a European Plan (27 leagues), a Worldwide Plan (111 leagues), and an Enterprise Plan (2,200+ leagues). A fully customisable Custom Plan is also possible (football leagues of your choice).

Furthermore, each plan is available in three default categories: Basic, Standard, and Advanced. The difference between these categories is the number of features available. For example, the trends, live standings and live odds are exclusively available in the Advanced package. If one of our default categories does not perfectly fit your needs there is a fourth option: Custom data features. Select the data features you need access to.

More on this can be found on our plans & pricing, and coverage page.

In addition to all leagues and features in our API, we have some additional features (our Add-ons). We will explain them in more detail below.
