Central Bank Rates

Every bank's latest official rate for one pair

Cross-bank comparison: each covered source's most recent official rate for the requested pair in a single call, with min/max/median and spread in basis points. Pairs a bank does not publish directly are cross-computed via that bank's own table only (never mixing banks) and flagged derived. Sources whose newest publication is older than 30 days are flagged stale and excluded from the spread stats. Banks that cannot produce the pair are skipped. Methodology: https://allratestoday.com/official-rates-methodology/. Available on all plans.
