If you run a finance blog, expat community site, or any website where your visitors might benefit from seeing current provider estimates, the current no-cost access path offers an embeddable widget for registered sites that displays current provider estimates.

Whether you're helping readers compare money transfer services or simply adding value to your travel website, our widget makes it easier to show current comparison context without building a rates integration from scratch.

What You Get with the Free Widget

  • Current estimate display from supported providers (Wise, XE, Remitly, and more)
  • Tracked currency routes including GBP-INR, USD-PHP, and EUR-PKR
  • Light and dark themes to match your website design
  • One-line integration: just copy and paste
  • Built-in analytics to track widget views
  • Current no-cost standard access for registered sites

Why Add Exchange Rates to Your Website?

If your audience includes people who send money internationally, showing current provider estimates adds immediate value. Instead of visitors leaving your site to check rates elsewhere, they get the information right there.

Here's what our widget helps with:

  • Finance blogs: Help readers make informed decisions with live data alongside your content
  • Expat communities: Provide valuable rate information to members sending money back home
  • Travel websites: Show travelers current estimate context for their destination currency
  • Business directories: Enhance your listings with current estimate comparisons
  • Forums and communities: Add helpful tools that keep users engaged

Four Simple Steps

Once you have your token, embedding the widget is as simple as adding this single line to your HTML:

Platform Compatibility

The widget can run on websites that permit custom JavaScript. Platform plans and security settings vary, so test the embed before publishing:

  • WordPress: Add to any post, page, or widget area
  • Blogger: Embed in posts or sidebar gadgets
  • Squarespace: Use a code block to add the widget
  • Wix: Add via the HTML iframe element
  • Static HTML: Direct embed in any HTML file
  • Forums (phpBB, vBulletin): Add to custom pages or sidebars

If your platform blocks third-party JavaScript, test the embed before publishing. A strict no-referrer policy does not block a token, but optional domain restrictions can only be checked when the browser sends a referrer.

Pricing: Current Standard Access

The standard access path is currently available at no cost for registered sites. Broader distribution or custom support may require a separate partnership agreement.
