Request

Using the convert amount API you can ask our system to convert an amount from one currency into another currency. We will use the rate set configured for your account to perform the conversion.

All amount fields in our API are in cents with each amount having 2 decimals, regardless of the actual decimal places the currency has. So JPY has no decimals in it currency, but you will need to add two zeros as cents.
