Before choosing a paid plan, confirm

• What happens when you exceed the quota: blocked or billed

• Whether live and historical data are on your plan

• Whether your use (public app, betting, resale) is licensed

Preview brief
# Integration brief: Bet Better

Goal: build a feature on Bet Better data. Use only the official documentation below as the source of truth.

## Known facts (from SportDex, verify before relying on them)
- Website: https://betbetter.world/api/
- Docs: https://betbetter.world/api/
- Sports: Football (soccer), American football, Basketball, Baseball, Ice hockey, Cricket, MMA, Australian football, Tennis
- Data: Fantasy, Odds, Predictions
- Protocols: REST; formats: json, csv
- Auth: none
- Free plan: Open API
- Note: Fetched via WebFetch (raw crawl had only a popup). Pro membership $29/week, $89/month, $399/year unlocks picks, it is a consumer tipster membership not API pricing. Feed contains no bookmaker prices. Part-tipster product; borderline.

## Verify before writing code
- whether commercial use is allowed on the plan you pick
- exact endpoint paths, parameters and response fields (read the official docs, do not guess)

## Implementation rules
- Keep the API key on the server (environment variable, backend route or edge function); never ship it to the browser.
- Cache responses and respect rate limits; count how many requests each screen triggers.
- Handle errors explicitly: invalid key, quota exceeded (429), missing fields, empty fixtures, timeouts.
- Start with one demo request and log the raw response before building UI on assumed field names.
