About Matchbook Exchange
Matchbook is a betting exchange where users bet against each other rather than against the house. With no built-in bookmaker margin, exchange odds on Matchbook are typically closer to true probability — plus users can both back and lay outcomes.
Exchange odds represent genuine market consensus driven by supply and demand. Developers use Matchbook data to calibrate implied probabilities, build trading bots, and identify arbitrage opportunities when exchange prices diverge from bookmaker odds.
OddsPapi aggregates Matchbook exchange prices alongside 350+ traditional bookmakers. Compare exchange odds against sharp and soft bookmaker lines in a single API call — no separate Matchbook account required. Free tier: 5,000 requests per month plus historical data.
