Get FX Quote

get
https://api.stage.localpayment.com/api/fx/currency-exchange/

This endpoint generates a secure currency exchange quote, locking in the FX rate, validity time frame, and a unique token for payment processing. By default, quotes refresh every 60 seconds, but custom frequencies from one minute to one day are available upon request to match your operational needs.

Supported use cases:
- Payin (DCC) : lock the rate before collecting a payment from your user.
- Payout (DCC) : lock the rate before sending a payment to a beneficiary.
- Bulk Exchange : lock the rate before converting funds between your own accounts.
For a full explanation of when and why to use each option, see FX Overview.
