Banco Familiar exchange rates: 1 USD = 6000.00 buy / 6310.00 sell PYG, 1 EUR = 6580.00 buy / 7120.00 sell PYG. 3 currencies vs the Banco Central del Paraguay official rate, hourly, free API.

   **Retail board rates.** These are the prices Banco Familiar displayed on [its own rates page](https://www.familiar.com.py/) when we last read it. They are indicative, change through the day, and are not official rates. For the reference rate, see the [Banco Central del Paraguay](https://allratestoday.com/central-bank-rates-api/bcp/).   ![](https://allratestoday.com/logos/banks/familiarpy.webp)

## About Banco Familiar

 [www.familiar.com.py](https://www.familiar.com.py/)

Banco Familiar is a Paraguayan bank serving households and small businesses. Its home page lists cash and cheque or transfer buying and selling prices for the US dollar and euro, and a cash price for the Brazilian real.

## ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/py.png) Latest board, read 15 Nov 2026, 15:53 Paraguay time (0h ago)

Board shown: **Cheque / transfer buy / sell (BRL cash)**. Banks outside the Gulf publish several boards for the same currency — counter notes, drafts, transfers, cards — and this page shows one of them, the same one for every bank in Paraguay so the comparison is like for like. The others are on the bank’s own page.

| Currency | Bank buys at | Bank sells at | Mid | Spread | Official 2026-11-13 | Mid vs official |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/us.png)`USD` | 6000.00 | 6310.00 | 6155.00 | 5.04% | 6215.89 | -0.98% |
| ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/eu.png)`EUR` | 6580.00 | 7120.00 | 6850.00 | 7.88% | 6867.94 | -0.26% |
| ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/br.png)`BRL`cash | 1000.00 | 1200.00 | 1100.00 | 18.18% | 1102.83 | -0.26% |

All values are PYG per 1 unit of the currency. Spread = (sell − buy) ÷ mid. Average spread across the board: **6.46%**. Official = Banco Central del Paraguay rate for 2026-11-13.

cash BRL: Banco Familiar quotes this currency only as bank notes, with no cheque / transfer buy / sell (brl cash) rate, so the cash buying and selling rates are shown instead. Cash spreads are wider, so these rows are left out of the average spread and of the bank comparison on the Paraguay page. In the API they carry `"basis": "cash"`.

## Banco Familiar rate history since 15 Nov 2026

We keep every day’s Banco Familiar board permanently, from 15 Nov 2026 onwards: one row per day and currency, the last board of the day.

| Month | Last board | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/us.png) USD buy / sell | ![](https://flagcdn.com/24x18/eu.png) EUR buy / sell |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Nov 2026 | 15 Nov 2026 | 6000.00 / 6310.00 | 6580.00 / 7120.00 |

PYG per 1 unit, the last board stored in each month (the bank publishes none on most weekends and holidays). Any day or range by API: History API examples.

### JavaScript

```
const res = await fetch('https://allratestoday.com/api/v1/bank-rates/py/familiarpy?ccy=USD', {
  headers: { Authorization: 'Bearer art_live_your_key' },
});
if (!res.ok) throw new Error(`${res.status}: ${(await res.json()).error}`);

### Python

```
import requests

    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer art_live_your_key"},
    timeout=10,

## Endpoints

- `GET /api/v1/bank-rates/py` — every covered bank in Paraguay, latest board each, plus `official_source` and `official_date`.
- `GET /api/v1/bank-rates/py/familiarpy` — one bank’s latest board.
- `?ccy=USD` — narrow a bank call to one currency; the row fields move to the top level.
- `?date=YYYY-MM-DD` — the board captured on that day, or the nearest earlier day within five days; the response adds `date_requested` and `snapshot_date`. Every plan.
- `GET /api/v1/bank-rates/py/familiarpy/history?ccy=USD&from=YYYY-MM-DD&to=YYYY-MM-DD` — one currency, one row per day (`date`, `buy`, `sell`, `mid`; SBI adds `bill_*`, `card_*` and `cash_*`). Defaults to the last year; `&format=csv`, `xml` or `xlsx`. Paid plans, one call per month covered. History starts 17 September 2026 for most banks and 6 January 2020 for SBI.

## Response fields

| Field | Meaning |
| --- | --- |
| `quote_ccy` | PYG. Every price is PYG per 1 unit of `ccy`. |
| `buy` | What the bank pays you in PYG for one unit of foreign currency. |
| `sell` | What the bank charges you in PYG for one unit — the rate for sending money abroad. |
| `mid`, `spread_pct` | Midpoint of buy and sell; spread = (sell − buy) ÷ mid, in percent. |
| `official`, `vs_official_pct` | The Banco Central del Paraguay rate for the same currency and how far the bank’s mid sits from it. |
| `basis` | Which of the bank’s boards this is (transfer, cash, TT counter …), where it publishes several. |
| `captured_at` | When AllRatesToday read the bank’s page (UTC). Boards are read hourly. |
| `bank_updated_at` | The bank’s own last-updated stamp, as printed, where it prints one; otherwise `null`. |

## Errors and limits

- `401` — no key or an invalid key. Any plan’s key works, the free one included.
- `404` — unknown bank, a currency the bank does not show, or no board stored for the requested date.
- `400` — `date` not in `YYYY-MM-DD` form, or in the future.
- Each call counts against your plan. Responses can be cached for five minutes; past-day boards never change.
- Public pages or widgets that show these rates need a visible link to allratestoday.com.

## Why use bank board rates through an API?

The Banco Central del Paraguay official rate is what accounting, tax and customs rules name, but it is not what a customer pays at the counter or in an app. Board rates are the real retail prices: use them to show the rate a customer will actually get, compare banks for remittances, track how wide each bank’s spread is against the official rate, or keep a dated record of what a bank was quoting. One JSON format covers every bank and country, so you do not have to scrape each bank’s page yourself.

## Frequently asked questions

### Is the Banco Familiar rate the official Paraguay exchange rate?

No. Banco Familiar sets its own buying and selling rates and changes them through the day. The official rate is published once per business day by the Banco Central del Paraguay; it is shown in the Official column and is the figure accounting, tax and customs rules refer to.

### Which Banco Familiar rate applies when I send money abroad?

The sell rate: you are buying foreign currency from the bank. When you convert foreign currency into PYG, the buy rate applies. Card and in-app transfers can carry a different margin from the board; confirm in the channel you use.

### How current is this table?

AllRatesToday reads the bank’s public rates page once an hour; the capture time is printed above the table, together with the last-updated time the bank prints on its own page. Rates may have changed since.

### Do you have historical Banco Familiar rates?

Yes, from 15 Nov 2026 onwards, one board per day. One day: /api/v1/bank-rates/py/familiarpy?date=YYYY-MM-DD (every plan). A range: /api/v1/bank-rates/py/familiarpy/history?ccy=USD (paid plans).
