+ Everything this server returns is a **mid-market rate**: the live interbank midpoint, refreshed every ~60 seconds — the right number for price display, conversion, and anything that should track the market. It is *not* the official rate a tax authority or auditor may require. For those, AllRatesToday also serves **published central-bank and tax-authority rates** (47 sources — ECB, Fed, HMRC, US Treasury, …) that are fixed once published and carry the institution's own publication date — via the [central bank REST API](https://allratestoday.com/docs/#central-bank) and [per-bank npm SDKs](https://allratestoday.com/central-bank-rates-api/). The two can diverge by several percent, so pick by use case, not convenience.
