FX and Pricing

Every currency pair the desk converts, and what it charges. Each direction is a corridor with its own spread, fee, per-payment cap and daily cap, and you can pause or halt any corridor at any time.

#The page

  • Tiles: Converted today · Quoting · Near daily cap · Payments today.
  • Corridors: a card per corridor with its rate, charge, status and how much of today's cap is used. A corridor is "near" its cap at 85 percent.
  • Reference prices opens the market prices every rate is built from. See Pricing.

#Adding a corridor

  1. Select New corridor.
  2. Choose Paid in and Paid out from your registered assets.
  3. Set the Spread, Fee, Per-payment cap and Daily cap. The daily cap must be at least the per-payment cap.
  4. Select Create and activate, or tick Start paused and select Create paused.

#A corridor's page

  • Reference and Charge (spread plus fee) in the header, with a chart of the rate and today's use.
  • Today: Used today, Left today, By the reset, and Largest single payment ("Anything larger is refused"), with a stream of what settled, was held or refused, and every change.
  • Pricing and limits: Spread, Fee, Skew, Largest single payment and Daily limit. Select Edit to change them, then Save changes.

#Pausing, halting and resuming
