New plans, new features, new data for 2026

We've been busy. Today we're excited to announce new subscription plans and a major expansion of our API, giving you more data, faster updates, and more tools engineers, data analysts and traders actually need.

Introducing Extra and Premium plans

We've always believed in keeping things simple. But we also heard from customers who wanted more: faster updates, trading-specific data, and professional-grade features. So we built two new plans to deliver exactly that.

Extra gives you 30-second updates on currency rates and access to our new FX Trading Pair data.

Premium takes it further with real-time FX trading pair data and 1-second updates on midpoint rates, plus the option to add WebSocket streaming. If you're building trading tools, this is the plan for you.

Both plans still include everything from our One plan: 170+ currencies, 500+ cryptocurrencies, and 1,000,000 API calls per month.

2,300+ FX trading pairs with bid/ask data

This is the big one. We've added 2,300+ FX trading pairs with bid and ask pricing, the kind of data serious analysts and trading applications need.

New endpoints include:

• /fx/quote: Get bid and ask prices for any trading pair
• /fx/pairs: List all available trading pairs
• /fx/currencies: Currency metadata for FX pairs
• /fx/pairs/quote-sizes: Standard quote sizes
• /fx/pairs/historical-limits: Check how far back historical data goes (up to 55 years!)

Extra plan users get 30-second updates. Premium users get real-time quotes.

OHLC / candlestick data: up to 55 years of history

Building charts? We've got you covered. Our new OHLC (open-high-low-close) endpoints provide candlestick data going back as far as 55 years for common trading pairs.

Two new time-series endpoints:

• /fx/ohlc/time-series: Historical OHLC data at day, hour, or minute resolution
• /fx/quote/time-series: Historical bid/ask quotes at the same day, hour, or minute granularity

Whether you need daily candles for long-term analysis or minute-by-minute data for intraday charts, it's all there.

Here are three daily EUR/USD candles, in one request:

$ curl -G https://api.fastforex.io/fx/ohlc/time-series \
    -H "X-API-Key: $FASTFOREX_API_KEY" \
    -d pair=EURUSD -d interval=P1D \
    -d end=2026-10-30 -d limit=3

  ],

}

Fast updates: 30s, 1s, or real-time

Speed matters. Here's what each plan delivers:

For applications where every second counts, Premium with WebSocket streaming gives you true real-time data delivery. WebSockets can provide hundreds of data ticks per second for highly liquid pairs.

WebSocket streaming (Premium add-on)

Need data pushed to you instead of polling? Our WebSocket streaming add-on delivers real-time FX quote data for all 2,300+ trading pairs. No more managing request timing or worrying about rate limits. Just open a connection and let the data flow.

Simple pricing philosophy

Save with annual billing: get two+ months free when you pay yearly.

All plans include 1,000,000 API calls per month, with top-ups available at $18 per million. No hidden fees. Just straightforward pricing for however much data you need.
