BSP Fiji is the Fiji arm of Bank South Pacific, Fiji’s largest bank. Its exchange-rates page lists telegraphic-transfer and note rates in foreign currency per Fiji dollar. This guide shows how to read that board as JSON: what the rates mean, how they compare with the Reserve Bank of Fiji official rate, and the calls that return them.

## What the BSP board shows

- **15 currencies against the Fijian dollar**: AUD, CAD, CHF, EUR, GBP, HKD, JPY, NZD, PGK, SBD, SGD, TOP, USD, VUV and WST. Every value is FJD per 1 unit of the foreign currency.
- **The telegraphic transfer pair.** The Fiji dollar is pegged to a basket of trading-partner currencies; banks print rates as foreign currency per Fiji dollar. The rates here are the telegraphic-transfer pair converted to Fiji dollars per unit. The Reserve Bank of Fiji official rate is shown next to each row.
- **USD on 15 November 2026**: BSP bought at 2.2427 and sold at 2.3315 FJD, a spread of 3.89%. The Reserve Bank of Fiji official rate was 2.2862, so the bank's mid sat +0.04% from it.
- **The bank's own timestamp.** The page prints a last-updated stamp (`Fri, 13 November 2026` 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 GBP (2.63%), HKD (2.72%), EUR (3.04%) and the widest SBD (43.19%), PGK (28.58%), VUV (24.30%). 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.

## Get the board (REST)

You need an API key; the [free key](https://allratestoday.com/register/) works. The full board:

```
curl "https://allratestoday.com/api/v1/bank-rates/fj/bspfj" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer art_live_your_key"
```

What comes back (the 15 November 2026 board, first three rows):

## Board rate or official rate?

The Reserve Bank of Fiji rate is the one tax, accounting and customs rules in Fiji name; nobody transacts at it. BSP'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 [Reserve Bank of Fiji endpoint](https://allratestoday.com/central-bank-rates-api/rbf/) when a rule asks for the official rate.

## FAQ

### Where do the BSP Fiji rates come from?

From the bank's own public rates page (https://www.bsp.com.fj/international-service/foreign-exchange/exchange-rates/), read hourly. AllRatesToday does not change the numbers: each row is the buy and sell price BSP shows, with the mid, the spread and the Reserve Bank of Fiji rate added.

### Are these the official FJD exchange rates?

No. They are BSP's retail prices for customers. The official rate in Fiji is the Reserve Bank of Fiji 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 BSP 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 BSP 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.
