The RISE Application Programming Interface (API) is a service offered by the Racing Information Services Enterprise (RISE). It offers a programmatic way to extract race data from RISE and re-use this content for a variety of purposes, including further analysis of the content or to build new online services.
RISE values creativity and encourages broad use of the API to encourage wagering. While we aim to make content as accessible as possible, we need to limit requests to the API to maintain the functionality of the API and the RISE service.
Your use of the RISE API constitutes your agreement to be bound by these Terms of Use as may be changed, amended or modified from time to time at the RISE’s sole discretion and without notice. These Terms of Use are to be read in conjunction with other terms on this website including terms as to privacy and copyright.
Contact information.
You agree to provide RISE with accurate and complete contact details and to inform us of any changes to that information.
Use of the API key.
Use of the API requires the issuance of an API key. The API key is not transferable and you are responsible for its use. If you are applying for an API key on behalf of a company or other organisation, you represent that you have the authority to bind that company or organisation.
Information about use. You agree to provide RISE with a description of any applications that include RISE’s content via the API. RISE will require free temporary access to publicly available applications or websites to ensure that these Terms of Use have been complied with.
Use. RISE may issue an API key on request. Specific written approval by RISE is required before any use. RISE will not enter into exclusive agreements with any commercial providers and will provide the same level of service for all. Only one key will be issued for use by each service offered by a commercial entity. Individual keys will not be issued for customers of that commercial entity.
