PSP-based improvements
FX Providers may also want to offer better rates to specific PSPs, for example, PSPs that already have a strong business relationship with the FXP. In Nexus this works as follows:
- An FXP can define the PSPs to which it wishes to offer improved rates
- For each PSP, the FXP can define how much the base rate should be improved, in basis points.
- When a Source PSP calls the
GET /quotes/API, Nexus will check whether any FXPs have registered preferential rates for that PSP and apply the improvement to the FXP's base rate. - An FXP does not need to set any PSP-based improvements. If no PSP-based improvement is set for a specific PSP, the base rate will apply.
