Can I place bets with a Pinnacle API?

Answer: Only Pinnacle's own API can place bets, and only if Pinnacle approves you. Its API page (opened 10 November 2026) says it does allow API access for loyal customers, and asks you to include account details so it can review your betting history. Cost is "variable" — there is no public rate card. The official README also requires a funded Pinnacle account, and documents bet-placement deduplication with uniqueRequestId (stored for 30 minutes). Public access to the official suite has been closed since 23 July 2025; you apply, you are not handed a self-serve key.

PinnFeed cannot place bets. It is an independent odds feed: prices, markets, fair odds, limits and closing records. It does not submit wagers, show your Pinnacle balance, or replace an account API. You bet on your own account, where that is legal for you.

If you only need the prices#

Create a PinnFeed key and call REST or, on Builder, open the WebSocket. No Pinnacle account is required. How to apply for official access, or migrate odds-only code: Pinnacle API access closed.

Questions people ask#

Can a third-party odds API place my bets?#

Not PinnFeed, and you should not assume any independent odds feed can. Bet placement is a sportsbook account feature.

Does official access still exist at all?#

Pinnacle's page still invites applications from business partners and individual customers, including academic research. It is review-based, not a checkout plan.
