Only SportyBet, Football.com, and Betway support tracking. Use mode: ticket to fail fast on a cut. Use mode: game to track to the end.

A cut ticket can return pending_choice. This status means the ticket waits for a ticket or game choice. The start response and the track list use the same pending_choice value.

How to read, list, and stop a track

A Manage Bet Codes track costs 1 API credit at the start and the plan's concurrent track limit applies: Developer allows 5 tracks, Scale allows 20, and Business allows 50. Read one track with GET /v1/track/{id}, stop it with DELETE /v1/track/{id}, list tracks with GET /v1/tracks, and expect 404 track_not_found for a track outside the key owner.

A track costs 1 credit at the start. The plan's concurrent track limit applies. A track that does not belong to the key owner returns 404 track_not_found.

How signed tracking webhooks work

Tracking webhooks send track.started, track.updated, track.finished, and track.cut events as HTTPS POST calls signed with X-MBC-Signature: sha256=<hex>. Webhooks retry 5 times with delays of 1, 5, 30, 120, and 600 seconds, time out after 10 seconds, and disable after 20 consecutive failures.
