Quote

Allows to get an exchange quote and a token that can be used for a subsequent transaction of the same type.

The FX rate is updated every 60 seconds by default. If you need a different configuration, please request a custom frecuency to our team.

The exchange rate token can be configured to have a lifetime of between 1 minute and up to 1 day. The expiration is to request a transaction within that time range, once the transaction has been created with the exchange rate token, the quoted FX will appear in the payment and also the payments will have their own, unrelated expiration time with the expiration of the exchange rate token.

FX transactions are only available between the local currency and a hard currency, or vice versa. For example, USD to BRL or BRL to AUS.

The hard currencies available for realizing an FX are listed below:

  • AUD - Australian dollar

  • CAD - Canadian dollar

  • CHF - Swiss franc

  • EUR - Euro

  • GBP - Pound Sterling

  • NZD - New Zealand dollar

  • USD - United States dollar

If you need a hard currency that isn't on the list or want to verify if there is foreign exchange between two hard currencies available in a country, please contact your account manager or our support team.
