# WNBA Odds API
The Odds API covers WNBA odds for live and upcoming games in a simple JSON API.
Not a developer? Current WNBA odds can also be accessed in Excel or Google Sheets. For website owners, the odds widget brings bookmaker odds into websites with a simple HTML tag.

Featured markets, including moneyline, spreads, totals are covered for several bookmakers. See the full list of bookmakers.
Additional markets including player props, quarter and half time markets, and more are covered for most US bookmakers. See the full list of betting markets.
Odds are refreshed at regular intervals. More information on update intervals can be found here.
WNBA scores are covered, with final scores available for games completed up to 3 days ago.
Current odds data and scores are available on all usage plans, including the free usage plan.

...The usage cost of the API call in this example is
usage cost = [number of markets] x [number of regions] = 3 x 1 = 3 credits
If you only need featured markets (moneyline, spreads, totals), it will be more cost-efficient to query the odds endpoint since it will return multiple games.
