Use cases

Exchange rates for analytics & BI

Normalize multi-currency revenue and build FX dashboards on a consistent, USD-pivoted dataset.

Example

Your warehouse ingests orders in 20 currencies. A nightly job pulls the day’s rate map and historical rates so every report rolls up to a single reporting currency.

# One call returns every USD-based rate
curl "https://rate-api.com/api/v1/YOUR_KEY/latest?base=USD"
Endpoints:
/latest
/historical

Why Rate-API

  • Pull a full rate map in one request.
  • Historical endpoints for time-based reporting (Pro+).
  • Stable, documented JSON that’s easy to model.
