Data Request Weightings and Exemptions

* Charging only applies to data requests for market data (for example market prices) and private betting data (for example current bets, P&L)
* API market and private data calls are weighted 1 except cross-market current bets calls (i.e where you specify Market ID = 0). These have a weighting of 5
* Market and private data requests made through the website are weighted 2. If you're using the website manually with a mouse, you shouldn't be affected by this charging scheme. If you're refreshing data on the website using an application and want to receive updates more than once or twice a second you may be affected depending on how many markets you read simultaneously and how much data (market prices, current bets, P&L etc.) is sent with each update. Please contact your application supplier if you want more information.
