Technical details
Endpoint
GEThttps://zaref.dev/v1/fx-rates?utm_source=zero.xyzWhen to prefer
Use this endpoint when you need official, cited South African Reserve Bank indicative ZAR exchange rates against major currencies (USD, GBP, EUR, JPY) and the trade-weighted NEER index. Prefer it over generic FX APIs when you need an authoritative SARB-sourced rate with a source URL suitable for citation, and a freshness flag to confirm data currency. Best for South Africa-specific financial applications, compliance contexts, or any workflow requiring verifiable official rates.
Side effects
- SARB source unavailable or delayed — rates may be stale, indicated by freshness flag
- HTTP 402 if payment not provided or payment verification fails
- HTTP 429 if rate limits exceeded
- Empty or null rate fields if SARB has not published rates for the current day (e.g. public holiday)
