Tickaroo Embed API

The Tickaroo Embed Version 3 is deprecated for all use cases, except for sports. If you are not using sports, we strongly encourage using V4. V3 will not receive any new features of the News Editor V2!

The Tickaroo Embed API is a Javascript based API to embed and interact with Tickaroo content directly within your website.
