Ticker News API

About the Ticker News API

Ticker News resolves the ticker to its exact listing first, then gathers stories from financial news feeds that are already organised by ticker, so results are tied to the company rather than guessed from keywords. The same story carried by several outlets is returned once. Each story is checked for whether its headline or summary names the company or ticker: stories that do are tagged direct and returned by default, while sector round-ups and peer stories the feeds also carry are available with relevance=all. News is refreshed hourly for tickers in use and kept for 90 days.

What people use it for

Portfolio News Feeds

Trading and portfolio apps show the latest stories for every holding on a watchlist or position screen.

Event Monitoring

Research tools and alerting services watch a list of tickers for new stories and flag the ones that mention the company.

Stock Pages

Finance sites and dashboards add a news panel to each ticker page without running their own news crawler.

Research Context

Analysts and AI assistants pull the recent headlines behind a price move before writing a note or answering a question.

Request parameters — GET /v1/tickernews

Sent in the query string. Premium parameters are accepted on every plan but only take effect on plans that include them. Anything not listed here is dropped rather than passed through.

Required

Optional

curl "https://api.apiverve.com/v1/tickernews?ticker=AAPL&market=US&relevance=direct&since=2026-10-01" \
  -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Authentication

Send your key in the x-api-key header. That is the only auth step — no token exchange, and no per-endpoint scope to configure.

Response — GET /v1/tickernews

Every APIVerve endpoint returns the same three top-level keys, so one response handler covers your whole integration: status, error and data. Only data changes shape.

Response fields

Paths are relative to data. Premium fields are absent rather than zeroed on plans that do not include them, so check for presence instead of comparing to 0.

Response headers

Every response carries your balance, so your own code always knows where it stands without polling anything. All four are exposed to browsers through CORS.

Errors

Read the HTTP status first, then error for the specific reason. The body names the parameter that has to change.

What a call costs — 2 credits per call

Credits are shared across every APIVerve API — one balance, one key, one bill. Failed requests never count against it, so a rejected input costs nothing.

Calls are what the credits buy at this API's rate — spend them here, on any of the other APIs, or across both. Nothing is reserved per endpoint.

Zero-code embed — one snippet, no backend

Drop an interactive Ticker News form onto any page. The widget calls the API for you, so no key ever appears in your markup and there is nothing to deploy.

Changelog — Ticker News API

Every change to this endpoint, newest first. Breaking changes ship as a new version and the previous one keeps serving — response fields are added, never removed or retyped in place, so an integration written against v1 keeps working.
