    Default Lottery result feed suppliers

    Anyone know of a decent/reliable supplier of accurate and timely lottery feed data for lotteries from the UK/Ireland/Europe?

    We're considering adding feeds to a site and not found a good solution yet - the few we've found are either a little unreliable or pretty pricy (ie: it'd be cheaper to just hire someone to watch the draws and manually enter the data).

    Ideally looking for XML feeds with full data about prize funds, number of winners etc.. (so including this kind of data: https://www.national-lottery.co.uk/r...-breakdown/232). Historical data would also be good so we can create a database of stats.

    We need the data in parsable feeds - so no widgets from other sites. We're also looking to pay for a premium service that comes with no restrictions such as crediting another site with the data etc...

    Figured you guys were probably the best to ask

    Gambling Domains: Small clear out of some of the domains we've been hoarding - see the spreadsheet here.

    Did you find the solution for your question?

    I guess it's a dead thread...

    the main lotto draws are available in csv format (as are thunderball) so you could easily manipulate that data, doesn't go back very far though.

    I'm asking because we are developing this feature to be available in lotto365 and I need some feedback of how it would be convenient to receive this feed.

    Thanks for the link

    All you need is one or more suppliers of the draw, in any shape or form, could be CSV too.

    You automatically parse the data into a MySQL database and then use it as you wish.

    That's interesting, didn't know they offered that. Unfortunately not enough info for what we're after as it looks like it's just the numbers (no prize info/breakdown etc..).

    We haven't found a decent solution yet no, but I don't think this is something we'd use from an aff program as we need the data to be unrestricted (eg: not dependent on promoting any lottery program etc..).

    Would be ideal if all the info was there but not found anything really that would work.

    Thanks for this JackTenSuited, the feed looks really great. Do you know how soon after the UK Lotto posts the results the feed gets updated?

    RSS feed and iFrame are the easiest form of implementing such news, even for novice webmasters (I suppose so)
