Terms of Service
The terms on which RacingAPI.net provides its racing data API and developer portal.
1. The service and these terms
RacingAPI.net provides a developer portal and a horse racing data API. These terms apply to access to our website, accounts, documentation and API. The applicable plan, the Acceptable Use Policy and the Data Licensing terms form part of the conditions of use.
Coverage is limited to the UK and Ireland. The availability of individual fields, bookmaker prices, images and historical records depends on the feed and may change; a listed endpoint does not guarantee that every race has every field.
2. Accounts and API keys
Provide accurate account information and keep your sign-in credentials and API keys confidential. Your organisation is responsible for activity using its account and keys. Do not publish keys in client-side code or share them with other organisations. Contact us promptly if you think a key or account has been compromised.
An account alone does not grant API access. Access requires an active paid subscription, a confirmed trial, or a separate time-limited approval from us. All keys associated with an account share its usage limits.
3. Plans, trials and payment
Current monthly plan prices and request allowances are shown on the pricing page. Eligible first-time customers can start one seven-day trial by completing checkout with a card; signing up alone does not start a trial. Unless cancelled before the trial ends, the chosen plan starts billing automatically. Paid subscriptions renew monthly until cancelled. The exact renewal or trial end date is shown in your billing portal.
Manage or cancel your subscription through the billing portal. Cancellation stops the next renewal; access normally continues until the end of the current paid period or trial. We do not add VAT because RacingAPI.net is not VAT registered. If checkout is marked as test mode, no real payment is taken.
4. Fair use and licensing
Use the API within the rate and monthly limits of your plan. The Acceptable Use Policy explains prohibited activity, and the Data Licensing page explains what you may do with the racing data and images. Neither a subscription nor possession of an API key transfers ownership of the underlying data or images.
5. Changes, interruptions and suspension
We may change feeds, correct data, disable an endpoint or suspend an account to address security, misuse, supplier restrictions or legal obligations. Where practical we will give notice of material changes. The API may be temporarily unavailable for maintenance or reasons outside our control. No guaranteed uptime or response time applies unless expressly agreed in writing.
6. Accuracy and responsibility
Racing data can be delayed, incomplete or corrected after publication. Check the response and its timestamps before using it in your product. RacingAPI.net is a data provider, not a bookmaker; it does not offer bets or guarantee outcomes. You are responsible for how you use the data, including any rules that apply to your own product.
Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limits rights you have under applicable law. Any other limits on liability must be considered in light of the applicable agreement and law.
7. Questions and disputes
For account, billing or data questions, email support@racingapi.net. These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, subject to any mandatory rights that apply to you.
