What data does the Chance API provide?
PulseScore provides pre-match odds, live in-play odds, and finished-match results from Chance's chance.cz sportsbook across 17 sports. Each event includes normalized market data with canonical market types, selections, and decimal odds, plus the raw market names as Chance displays them.
What sports are covered?
The 17 sports Chance publishes pre-match markets for: Soccer, Tennis, Basketball, Ice Hockey, Baseball, American Football, Australian Rules, Badminton, Beach Volleyball, Boxing, Esports, Handball, MMA, Rugby League, Snooker, Table Tennis, and Volleyball. Every sport exposes /leagues, /leagues/:league/events, /events (paginated), and /events/:eventId.
Are league and market names in Czech?
Yes — Chance is a Czech operator, so the league, rawName, and score info strings come through in Czech exactly as the sportsbook publishes them (for example 'Výsledek zápasu', 'Remíza', '1. anglická liga'). The canonical fields — canonicalMarket, canonicalOutcome, and period — are language-neutral and identical across every bookmaker on PulseScore, so an integration built on the canonical shape needs no translation layer.
Does it include match results?
Yes. /api/chance/results returns finished events with their final score and match clock, most recent first. Filter by sport, league, or team (exact name, case-insensitive), look up a single result with /results/events/:eventId, or discover covered sports with /results/sports. Results are retained for 30 days after the match ends, and soccer, tennis, table tennis, volleyball, badminton, beach volleyball, and snooker also carry a statistics block.
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 with decimal odds and handicap lines where applicable. The same structure is shared across all sports and all bookmakers on PulseScore — write your integration once.
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.
Does the Chance API support live in-play data?
Yes. Live in-play events are available via REST (/api/chance/live-events, /live-events/sports, /live-events/events/:eventId) and via WebSocket at wss://api.pulsescore.net/api/chance/ws/live. The WebSocket pushes every in-play event for the subscribed sport roughly every second, including the live score, match clock, per-period scores, and in-period statistics. PRO, MAX, and ULTRA plans only.
