GET /pub/v2/rate returns the two live rates for a
currency. Both are quoted as units of the target currency per 1 USD, so a
rate of 1610 for NGN means one dollar of stablecoin is worth ₦1,610.
Two directions, priced separately
offRampRate
Crypto leaving for fiat — the rate applied when a deposit to a bank account
address is paid out.
onRampRate
Fiat coming in for crypto.
Your fee is already applied
Rates are resolved against the business behind your API key, with that business’s fee already baked into the number returned. The value you get is the value your user should see.Quoting an amount
To show a user what a deposit will be worth:A rate is indicative, not a lock
Calling this endpoint does not reserve anything. The rate that settles a deposit is the one active at the moment the deposit is observed on-chain, which may differ from the one you displayed a minute earlier.Present quotes as approximate (“you’ll receive about ₦80,500”) and re-fetch
the rate rather than caching it for long stretches. The
createdAt on each
rate tells you how recently it was published.Currencies
Thecurrency parameter accepts NGN, GHS, TZS, KES, ZAR and USD.
Being listed in the enum is not the same as being live — a currency with no
active rate returns 404, so treat that response as “not supported yet” rather
than as an error in your request.
