Multicurrency

​

How It Works

1. Merchant sets a baseline currency (e.g., USD) — all products are priced in this currency
2. Customer’s currency is detected via IP geolocation (or manual selection)
3. Prices are converted using live exchange rates
4. Payment is processed in the customer’s currency via the appropriate gateway
5. Merchant receives payout in their baseline currency

​

Supported Currencies

​

Exchange Rates

• Source: Live mid-market rates
• Caching: Rates are cached with volatility-aware TTLs
  • Stable currencies (USD/EUR): 60 minutes
  • Volatile currencies (USD/NGN): 15 minutes
• Tolerance: 5% drift tolerance for cross-currency payment validation

​

API Usage

​

Get converted pricing

curl "https://api.khaime.com/api/v1/partner/pricing/calculate?amount=10000&target_currency=NGN" \
  -H "X-API-Key: pk_sandbox_your_key"

​

Charge in customer’s currency

# Step 1: get the converted amount
curl "https://api.khaime.com/api/v1/partner/pricing/calculate?amount=10000&target_currency=NGN" \
  -H "X-API-Key: pk_sandbox_your_key"
# Returns: { "local": { "amount": 14501000, "currency": "NGN" } }

# Step 2: create the charge
curl -X POST https://api.khaime.com/api/v1/partner/payments/charge \
  -H "X-API-Key: pk_sandbox_your_key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "amount": 14501000,
    "currency": "NGN",
    "total_amount": 10000,
    "total_currency": "USD",
    "converted_total_amount": 14501000,
    "converted_total_currency": "NGN",
    "customer": {
      "email": "customer@example.com",
      "country": "NG"
    }
  }'

• amount / currency — what the customer pays (already converted)
• total_amount / total_currency — the merchant’s original pricing, inclusive of all fees (shipping, etc.)
• converted_total_amount / converted_total_currency — your pre-computed conversion result; Khaime cross-validates this against its own calculation (1% tolerance)
