Attribution
This MCP server surfaces a Powered by SportScore attribution with every tool result. The free-tier API requires that attribution to remain visible in end-user-facing output — so please don't strip it from your prompts or post-processing.
Commercial / white-label use that needs to remove the attribution: api@sportscore.com. Terms: sportscore.com/developers/terms/.
Rate limits
Free tier: approximately 1000 requests / 24h / IP, with 60-second edge caching. Sensible for any MCP workflow — a user driving a chat session will not approach the limit. Bulk / production / higher-volume use: contact api@sportscore.com.
