Live exchange rates from the API

As of 17 Oct 2026, 22:44 UTC. This table refreshes every 5 minutes; the API itself every 60 seconds.

The table is the API's own output for every currency it serves: the mid-market rate against USD, with EUR and GBP crossed from the same snapshot. 163 currencies are available on the endpoint; each code links to a converter with history.

Mid-market means the interbank midpoint: the benchmark with no margin in it. Indicative, for information only; retail transactions carry a spread on top.

What the free exchange rate API includes

• 160+ currencies, any pair: one request returns one pair or a whole list of targets against a source currency.
• Refreshed every 60 seconds: every response carries a time field, so caching decisions are yours.
• Free key, no card: a lifetime allowance of 300 requests to build and test with; paid plans start at €4.99 a month.
• Every format and language: JSON, CSV, XML and XLSX on the same endpoints, plus SDKs for JavaScript, Python, PHP, Go and Rust and an MCP server for AI agents.
• Real-time status: a public status page and a documented availability policy.

Quick start

Three currencies against the US dollar, live, in one call:

curl "https://allratestoday.com/api/v1/rates?source=USD&target=EUR,GBP,JPY" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer art_live_your_key"

[
  { "source": "USD", "target": "EUR", "rate": 0.8898, "time": "2026-10-17T22:44:34.725Z" },
  { "source": "USD", "target": "GBP", "rate": 0.7504, "time": "2026-10-17T22:44:34.725Z" },
  { "source": "USD", "target": "JPY", "rate": 158.00,  "time": "2026-10-17T22:44:34.725Z" }
]

From JavaScript:

const rates = await fetch("https://allratestoday.com/api/v1/rates?source=USD&target=EUR,GBP", {
  headers: { Authorization: "Bearer art_live_your_key" }
}).then(r => r.json());

console.log(rates[0].rate); // EUR per 1 USD, mid-market, refreshed every 60 seconds

From Python:

import requests

rates = requests.get(
    "https://allratestoday.com/api/v1/rates",
    params={"source": "USD", "target": "EUR,GBP"},
    headers={"Authorization": "Bearer art_live_your_key"},
).json()
print(rates[0]["rate"])  # EUR per 1 USD

Swap the source and targets for any of the 160+ supported currencies. The playground runs the same requests in the browser with your key.

Historical rates and time series

# A past date
curl "https://allratestoday.com/api/v1/rates?source=USD&target=EUR&time=2026-06-30" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer art_live_your_key"

# A daily series
curl "https://allratestoday.com/api/v1/rates?source=USD&target=EUR&from=2026-01-01&to=2026-06-30" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer art_live_your_key"

A dated lookup returns the mid-market rate for that day; a range returns one row per day, ready for a chart or a revaluation. History is metered by volume on the paid plans. To measure how far a pair moved over a period, see the currency fluctuation guide.

Endpoints

Any table endpoint returns CSV, XML or Excel with &format=csv|xml|xlsx (see XML output and rates in Excel). The full reference is in the documentation and the OpenAPI spec.

What makes an exchange rate API worth building on

• A stated refresh interval and a timestamp on every rate. "Live" means nothing without the minute the number belongs to. Here it is 60 seconds and the time field.
• Honest sourcing. Mid-market rates aggregated from institutional foreign exchange market data, labelled as indicative. No relabelled retail rates.
• A key you can keep out of the browser. Server-side calls with a bearer token; for pages, the embeddable widget and the keyless React localizer exist so your key never ships to a client.
• Formats and SDKs that match how you work. JSON for services, CSV and XLSX for finance teams, typed clients for five languages.
• Somewhere to look when something is wrong. A public status page, documented error codes and a versioning policy.

How it compares

Details and caveats for each are in the alternatives guides and the state of exchange rate APIs in 2026.

Pricing at a glance

Full plan details are on the pricing page. For how this stacks up against other providers on free tiers and update frequency, read the best exchange rate API comparison.

What it is used for

• Checkout and price display: quote in the visitor's currency from a live rate, refreshed on a schedule, with caching so one fetch serves many users.
• Multi-currency SaaS billing: convert plan prices and invoices at the rate of the moment, with the timestamp stored next to the amount.
• Dashboards and reporting: pull a daily series as CSV or Excel for a period and chart it.
• Fintech and remittance apps: show the benchmark next to your own quote so customers can see the margin.
• AI agents: give an assistant a rate it can cite through the MCP server.

Frequently asked questions

What is an exchange rate API?

A web service that returns currency exchange rates as machine-readable data, usually JSON, so software can convert amounts, display prices in a visitor’s currency or record a rate without a person looking it up. AllRatesToday returns the real-time mid-market rate for any pair among 160+ currencies with one HTTP request.

What is a mid-market rate?

The midpoint between the buy and sell prices currencies trade at on the interbank market at that moment. It is the benchmark rate quoted by news sites and converters, with no margin in it, and the right figure for pricing, display and conversion inside an application.

Is the exchange rate API free?

Yes. A free API key, issued in under a minute with no card, returns live rates for every supported currency with a one-time allowance of 300 requests. Paid plans from €4.99 a month add monthly volume, historical rates, time series, file formats and commercial use.

How often are the exchange rates updated?

Every 60 seconds. Each response carries a time field so you can see exactly which minute the rate belongs to, and cache accordingly.

Does the API provide historical exchange rates?

Yes. Add time=YYYY-MM-DD to the rates endpoint for the rate on a past date, or from and to for a daily series, on the paid plans.

Which output formats does the exchange rate API support?

JSON by default. Add format=csv, format=xml or format=xlsx to any table endpoint for a spreadsheet-ready file. Official SDKs exist for JavaScript, Python, PHP, Go and Rust.

Where does the data come from?

Mid-market rates are aggregated from institutional foreign exchange market data and served through one endpoint. Rates are indicative and for information only; retail transactions carry a margin on top.
