 With a key, `get_exchange_rate`, `get_historical_rates` and `get_rates_authenticated` return a **mid-market rate**, 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, call **`get_official_rates`**: the latest table published by any of 121 central banks and 3 tax authorities (ECB, Fed, HMRC, US Treasury, Swiss BAZG, …), fixed once published and carrying the institution's own `rate_date`, no key needed. `list_central_banks` gives the codes. Dated official tables (a past `date`) need an API key on a **paid plan** — a free key gets `403 Historical central bank rates require a paid plan`. Mid-market history (`get_historical_rates`, and `time` on `get_rates_authenticated`) is paid-plan too — free and trial keys get `403`. See 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.
