## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability remittancepulse-fx-rate-markup-analyzer-d6e8608f
```

Example prompt: I'm about to send $800 USD to my family in the Philippines — can you pull the live ECB mid-market rate for USD to PHP, show me what markup typical providers are charging, and tell me exactly how many Philippine pesos my recipient would actually receive?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to transparently compare the live mid-market rate against provider markups for any global currency pair, especially when the user wants to know the true FX cost of a remittance — not just the nominal fee. Prefer this over generic FX rate APIs when the goal is markup analysis and recipient-side amount calculation rather than simple rate conversion.

## Known failure modes

- Unsupported currency pair returns an error or empty result
- ECB rate feed unavailable causes stale or missing rate data
- Invalid currency code format returns a validation error
- Payment of 0.05 USDC not completed results in 402 Payment Required response
- Network timeout if ECB data source is temporarily unreachable

## How this service works

Best exchange rate and FX margin for money transfers: live mid-market rate vs provider markups for real-cost analysis. What recipient actually gets, how much currency-conversion markup providers charge, and exact converted amount for any currency pair. Live ECB mid-market rate plus rate environment. Worldwide currencies.

## Output

Returns the current ECB mid-market exchange rate for the requested currency pair, the FX margin/markup percentage charged by providers above that rate, the exact converted amount the recipient would receive in the target currency, and a current rate environment indicator — giving a complete picture of the true cost of a remittance transfer.
