How to call it

A starting template for Exchange Rates API. Replace ENDPOINT with the path from the official documentation, which we link above rather than guess at.

curl -s "https://docs.exchangeratesapi.com.au/ENDPOINT" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_TOKEN" \
  -H "Accept: application/json"

This API does not send CORS headers, so a browser will block a direct call from your front end. Call it from your server, or put a small proxy in front of it.

Exchange Rates API — common questions

Answered from what our own scheduled checks found, not from the provider's marketing.

Is Exchange Rates API free to use?

Exchange Rates API is listed in our free catalogue, but it requires some form of authentication, so you will need to register before your first call. Providers frequently reserve higher limits and commercial use for paid plans.

Does Exchange Rates API need an API key?

Exchange Rates API requires some form of authentication. Check the provider's documentation for which scheme it expects.

Can I call Exchange Rates API from browser JavaScript?

Not directly. Exchange Rates API did not return CORS headers when we checked, so the browser will block your page from reading the response even though the request itself succeeds. Call it from a server, or put a small proxy in front of it.

Is Exchange Rates API still working?

Yes, as of 2026-09-18. Our automated check reached Exchange Rates API and recorded a 100% reliability score with a median response time of 1232 ms. We re-check on a schedule, and this page updates with the result.

Is Exchange Rates API available over HTTPS?

Yes. Exchange Rates API serves over HTTPS, so you can call it from a secure page without triggering a mixed-content block.
