DenizBank Exchange Rate API: TRY Buy and Sell Rates as JSON

DenizBank is a Turkish private bank owned by Dubai’s Emirates NBD since 2019. Its markets page lists bank buying and selling rates against the lira for over 30 currencies, with a last-updated time. This guide shows how to read that board as JSON: what the rates mean, how they compare with the Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye official rate and with other banks in Turkey, and the calls that return them.

What the DenizBank board shows

• 32 currencies against the Turkish lira: AED, AUD, BHD, BRL, CAD, CHF, CNY, CZK, DKK, EUR, GBP, HKD, HUF, IDR, INR, JPY, KWD, KZT, MXN, NOK, NPR, NZD, PLN, QAR, RON, RUB, SAR, SEK, SGD, THB, USD and ZAR. Every value is TRY per 1 unit of the foreign currency.
• The döviz (transfer) buy / sell pair. Turkish bank boards move through the trading day and carry wide spreads. The Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye publishes its official rates once each business day at 15:30 Istanbul time; those are the rates tax and customs use, not the bank boards.
• USD on 15 November 2026: DenizBank bought at 48.8333 and sold at 51.6334 TRY, a spread of 5.57%. The Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye official rate was 50.283, so the bank's mid sat -0.10% from it.
• The bank's own timestamp. The page prints a last-updated stamp (15.11.2026 06:51 (Istanbul) on the board above), returned as bank_updated_at next to our captured_at.
• Every day's board is kept permanently, from 14 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 IDR (3.64%), CAD (5.57%), USD (5.57%) and the widest SAR (9.59%), RUB (9.23%), CNY (6.89%). 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 Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye rate is the one tax, accounting and customs rules in Turkey name; nobody transacts at it. DenizBank'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 Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye endpoint when a rule asks for the official rate.

FAQ

Where do the DenizBank rates come from?

From the bank's own public rates page (https://www.denizbank.com/yatirim/piyasalar/doviz), read hourly. AllRatesToday does not change the numbers: each row is the buy and sell price DenizBank shows, with the mid, the spread and the Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye rate added.

Are these the official TRY exchange rates?

No. They are DenizBank's retail prices for customers. The official rate in Turkey is the Central Bank of the Republic of Türkiye 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 DenizBank 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 DenizBank rates for a past date?

Yes, from 14 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.
