About Fixer
What is Fixer?
Fixer is a simple, lightweight JSON API that provides real-time and historical foreign exchange (forex) rates for 170 world currencies. Data is sourced from the European Central Bank and other financial data providers, with updates as frequently as every 60 seconds. It solves the problem of unreliable, slow, or complex currency data integration for apps, e-commerce platforms, financial dashboards, and more.
Who is it for?
Fixer is built for developers, SMBs, and large corporations who need accurate, bank-level encrypted exchange rate data. It is ideal for e-commerce stores that display multi-currency pricing, travel apps, accounting software, and financial services. It is not meant for casual one-time lookups; it is designed for programmatic, automated access via API.
Real use cases
Use Fixer to convert prices in a checkout flow, track currency fluctuations over time with the Time-Series endpoint, or fetch historical rates for reporting. Companies like Samsung, Microsoft, and Kraken trust Fixer for their forex data needs.
