Exchange Games API Developers Centre

Betfair Games have implemented a web service that provides an Application Programming Interface (API), allowing developers to write their own applications that seamlessly integrate with the Betfair Games system. This offers the potential to build a wide range of applications from a new client front end to the system as an alternative to the existing website, to an automated betting tool.

The implementation of the web service uses a framework known as Representational State Transfer (REST). This enables developers to interact with the Betfair Games system using simpler development and runtime technologies like HTTP and XML.

Below are links to the technical information, documentation, and discussion to help get you started!
