South African Reserve Bank (SARB) API

healthy 4,749 Subscribers

Live headline economic and financial indicators from the South African Reserve Bank (SARB), the central bank of South Africa — read straight from the SARB public web-indicators feed, no key, nothing stored. The dashboard endpoint returns the bank's full headline board exactly as published on its home page: the policy repo rate, prime lending rate, Sabor and Zaronia money-market rates, benchmark government-bond closing yields, the rand exchange rates and the latest inflation prints. The fx endpoint isolates the rand exchange rates — rand per US dollar, British pound, euro and Japanese yen — plus the nominal effective exchange rate. The interest endpoint returns the policy and lending rates with the benchmark bond yields. The inflation endpoint returns the latest CPI and PPI. The marketrates endpoint returns the fuller current money-market rate list. Every indicator carries its own as-of date and a direction versus the prior print. This is South-African central-bank data (ZAR rates, yields and inflation) — distinct from the crypto ZAR exchange-ticker and the other central-bank APIs in the catalogue.

VALR Exchange API — oanor API marketplace

VALR Exchange API

Live spot market data from VALR, South Africa's leading crypto exchange, served straight from its public order books — no key on the data, nothing cached, nothing stored. Look up any market for its last price, best bid/ask and spread, 24h high/low, 24h change and base/quote volume; rank every market for a quote currency (South African rand ZAR, USDC, USDT or BTC) by 24h turnover; list the tradable pairs with their base and quote; or pull live order-book depth with the running spread. Markets are addressed BASE_QUOTE (BTC_ZAR). This is the VALR venue specifically — a distinct South-African-rand price feed, ideal for ZAR price discovery and Africa-market arbitrage, separate from the USD/USDT-quoted exchange APIs in the catalogue.

A distinct African / emerging-markets venue with local-fiat pricing, separate from other exchange feeds. Note: XBT = Bitcoin.

Bank Negara Malaysia FX & Rates API — oanor API marketplace

Bank Negara Malaysia FX & Rates API

Official central-bank data from Bank Negara Malaysia (BNM), the central bank of Malaysia, all quoted around the Malaysian Ringgit (MYR). Read every BNM foreign-exchange reference rate with its buying, selling and middle quote — each row carries the BNM quoting unit (the Japanese Yen, for example, is quoted per 100) plus a normalized myr_per_unit, so conversions are never ambiguous — look up a single currency, or convert any amount between two quoted currencies or MYR using the central-bank cross rate. Beyond FX, the same surface exposes the Kijang Emas gold bullion coin buying and selling prices (one, half and quarter ounce), the current Overnight Policy Rate set by the Monetary Policy Committee, and the published base rate, base lending rate and indicative effective lending rate for every licensed Malaysian bank. Rates always resolve to the latest published business-day fixing. Distinct from our other central-bank FX feeds: this bundles Malaysian FX, gold and policy/lending rates in one API.

Central Bank of Myanmar FX API — oanor API marketplace

Central Bank of Myanmar FX API

Official daily foreign-exchange reference rates published by the Central Bank of Myanmar (CBM), quoted against the Myanmar Kyat (MMK). Read every CBM reference rate in one call, look up a single currency, or convert any amount between two quoted currencies (or MMK) using the central-bank cross rate. CBM follows a per-100 quoting convention for its low-value currencies — Indonesian Rupiah, Japanese Yen, Cambodian Riel, South Korean Won, Lao Kip and Vietnamese Dong are published per 100 units while every other currency is per 1 — so each rate carries both the raw quoted_rate and quoted_per plus a normalized mmk_per_unit, making conversions unambiguous. Rates always resolve to the latest published business-day fixing. Distinct from our other central-bank feeds (Bosnia, North Macedonia, Romania, Moldova, Nepal): this surfaces the Myanmar Kyat reference table specifically.
