Bank Spółdzielczy w Brodnicy Exchange Rate API: PLN Buy and Sell Rates as JSON

Bank Spółdzielczy w Brodnicy is an independent cooperative bank in Brodnica, Kuyavia-Pomerania. Its rates page lists dewizy and cash buy and sell rates for eleven currencies, published several times a day. This guide shows how to read that board as JSON: what the rates mean, how they compare with the Narodowy Bank Polski official rate and with other banks in Poland, and the calls that return them.

What the BS Brodnica board shows

• 11 currencies against the Polish zloty: AUD, CAD, CHF, CZK, DKK, EUR, GBP, HUF, NOK, SEK and USD. Every value is PLN per 1 unit of the foreign currency.
• The non-cash (dewizy) buy / sell pair. Polish banks set their own buying and selling rates several times a day; the National Bank of Poland publishes one official mid rate per business day (Table A), which tax and accounting rules use. The pair here is the bank’s branch board.
• USD on 15 November 2026: BS Brodnica bought at 3.8526 and sold at 4.1131 PLN, a spread of 6.54%. The Narodowy Bank Polski official rate was 3.9852, so the bank's mid sat -0.06% from it.
• The bank's own timestamp. The page prints a last-updated stamp (2026-11-13 16:00 on the board above), returned as bank_updated_at next to our captured_at.
• Every day's board is kept permanently, from 13 November 2026. Read one past day with ?date=, or a range for one currency with the /history endpoint (paid plans).

Spreads across the board

On the 15 November 2026 board the tightest spreads were USD (6.54%), CHF (6.55%), EUR (7.05%) and the widest NOK (9.69%), AUD (8.87%), CZK (8.09%). Spread is (sell − buy) ÷ mid: what a round trip through the bank costs, before any fees. The API returns it on every row as spread_pct, so you can rank currencies or alert when a bank widens its board.

Board rate or official rate?

The Narodowy Bank Polski rate is the one tax, accounting and customs rules in Poland name; nobody transacts at it. BS Brodnica's board is the price a customer actually gets. The API puts both on every row: official is the central bank's rate for the same currency and vs_official_pct is how far the bank's mid sits from it. Use the board to show customers a real price, compare banks for a remittance, or keep a dated record of what the bank quoted; use the Narodowy Bank Polski endpoint when a rule asks for the official rate.

FAQ

Where do the Bank Spółdzielczy w Brodnicy rates come from?

From the bank's own public rates page (https://www.bsbrodnica.pl/klienci-indywidualni/kursy-walut), read hourly. AllRatesToday does not change the numbers: each row is the buy and sell price BS Brodnica shows, with the mid, the spread and the Narodowy Bank Polski rate added.

Are these the official PLN exchange rates?

No. They are BS Brodnica's retail prices for customers. The official rate in Poland is the Narodowy Bank Polski rate, which the API returns as official on each row where the central bank has one, and in full from the central-bank endpoint.

How often is the BS Brodnica board updated?

AllRatesToday reads the page every hour. The bank's own last-updated stamp is returned as bank_updated_at, so you can tell a fresh read of an unchanged board from a new board.

Can I get BS Brodnica rates for a past date?

Yes, from 13 November 2026 onward; every day's board is kept permanently. Add ?date=YYYY-MM-DD for one day: the response is the board captured that day, or the nearest earlier day within five days, with date_requested and snapshot_date added. For a range, /history?ccy=USD&from=…&to=… returns one row per day as JSON, CSV, XML or XLSX on paid plans.

Do I need an API key?

Yes. Commercial bank boards need an API key; any plan works, the free key included, and each call counts against the plan. Public pages or widgets that show the rates need a visible link to allratestoday.com.
