Currencycloud

Currencycloud is a cross-border payments and foreign-exchange platform, part of Visa, that provides a robust, predictable REST API for converting money between currencies, holding multi-currency balances, and making payments around the world. Its API v2 spans 18 domains — authentication, accounts and sub-accounts, balances, beneficiaries, contacts, conversions, funding, payers, payments, quotes, rates, reference data, reporting, transactions, transfers and withdrawal accounts — and lets businesses dynamically register sub-accounts to offer white-labelled money-transfer services to their own customers. Currencycloud is an FCA-authorised Electronic Money Institution (registration #900199) and a FinCEN-registered money transmitter, and publishes official SDKs for JavaScript, Python, Ruby, PHP, Java and .NET.

Currencycloud publishes 27 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Account Usage API, Accounts API, Authenticate API, and 24 more. Tagged areas include Company, Fintech, Payments, Foreign Exchange, and Cross-Border Payments.

The Currencycloud catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification.

Currencycloud’s developer surface includes documentation, API reference, getting-started guide, authentication, signup flow, support, changelog, and 28 more developer resources.
