FX - PanoQore

A conversion is one entry through the tenant’s FX position accounts, balanced in each currency on its own.

Before you start

You need AST:FXP:<CCY> in both currencies. Without them a conversion gets FX_POSITION_MISSING. Open them with POST /v1/accounts.

Rates

A manual desk rate is entered in the console and is not usable until a second person signs it off.

curl "$PANOQORE_URL/v1/fx/rates?liveOnly=true" -H "Authorization: Bearer $PANOQORE_API_KEY"

{
  "rates": [{
    "id": "fxr_01M6F1DSCZFJ1T4JZ4S2384YE9",
    "base": "USD",
    "quote": "NGN",
    "mid": "1500.25",
    "spreadBps": "50",
    "source": "manual",
    "status": "LIVE"
  }],
  "page": { "total": "1" }
}

mid is units of quote per one base, as a decimal string. A rate older than the tenant’s maximum age blocks conversions with RATE_STALE.

Quote

A quote prices an amount at the live rate less the spread, and holds it for 60 seconds. It needs entries:write or fx:write.

curl -X POST "$PANOQORE_URL/v1/fx/quotes" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $PANOQORE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"base":"USD","quote":"NGN","baseAmount":"10000"}'

{
  "id": "fxq_01M6F1DSWGEQVRYGRRZKRNEQPE",
  "rateId": "fxr_01M6F1DSCZFJ1T4JZ4S2384YE9",
  "base": "USD",
  "quote": "NGN",
  "baseAmount": "10000",
  "quoteAmount": "14927487",
  "rate": "1492.74875",
  "expiresAt": "2026-11-02T21:08:43.632378Z"
}

$100.00 at 1492.74875 comes to ₦149,274.87. Quotes are by baseAmount.

Convert

A conversion needs entries:write.

curl -X POST "$PANOQORE_URL/v1/fx/convert" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $PANOQORE_API_KEY" \
  -H "Idempotency-Key: $(uuidgen)" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"quoteId":"'"$QUOTE"'","fromAccountId":"'"$USD_WALLET"'","toAccountId":"'"$NGN_WALLET"'","externalRef":"fx-1"}'

The answer is an entry with kind: FX and fxRateId set.

Account	Side	Amount
`LIA:WAL:USD:0001`	`DEBIT`	`10000` USD
`AST:FXP:USD`	`CREDIT`	`10000` USD
`AST:FXP:NGN`	`DEBIT`	`14927487` NGN
`LIA:WAL:NGN:0001`	`CREDIT`	`14927487` NGN

A quote can be used once, and a second try gets QUOTE_USED. After 60 seconds it gets QUOTE_EXPIRED.
