TTK Banka Exchange Rate API: MKD Buy and Sell Rates as JSON

TTK Banka is a privately owned Macedonian bank based in Skopje. Its exchange list gives denar buying and selling rates for 10 currencies, for exchange-office and foreign-exchange-market transactions. This guide shows how to read that board as JSON: what the rates mean, how they compare with the National Bank of the Republic of North Macedonia official rate and with other banks in North Macedonia, and the calls that return them.

What the TTK board shows

• 10 currencies against the Macedonian denar: AUD, CAD, CHF, DKK, EUR, GBP, JPY, NOK, SEK and USD. Every value is MKD per 1 unit of the foreign currency.
• The foreign-exchange market (non-cash, devizi) buy / sell pair. The denar is held in a tight managed peg to the euro (about 61.5 MKD per EUR), so bank EUR rates sit within a few tenths of a percent of the NBRM middle rate; banks publish a daily list with separate exchange-office (cash) and foreign-exchange (non-cash) columns, and spreads on USD, GBP and CHF run 2-4%. The National Bank of the Republic of North Macedonia official rate is shown next to each row.
• USD on 15 November 2026: TTK bought at 54.93 and sold at 56.53 MKD, a spread of 2.87%. The National Bank of the Republic of North Macedonia official rate was 55.7784, so the bank's mid sat -0.09% from it.
• The bank's own timestamp. The page prints a last-updated stamp (2026-11-15 00:00:00 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 EUR (0.65%), USD (2.87%), DKK (3.15%) and the widest JPY (5.71%), NOK (4.62%), SEK (3.96%). 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 National Bank of the Republic of North Macedonia rate is the one tax, accounting and customs rules in North Macedonia name; nobody transacts at it. TTK'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 National Bank of the Republic of North Macedonia endpoint when a rule asks for the official rate.

FAQ

Where do the TTK Banka rates come from?

From the bank's own public rates page (https://www.ttk.com.mk/Web/Курсна_листа.aspx), read hourly. AllRatesToday does not change the numbers: each row is the buy and sell price TTK shows, with the mid, the spread and the National Bank of the Republic of North Macedonia rate added.

Are these the official MKD exchange rates?

No. They are TTK's retail prices for customers. The official rate in North Macedonia is the National Bank of the Republic of North Macedonia 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 TTK 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 TTK 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.
