LBMA Price API

Provides real-time and historical LBMA precious metals prices with inverse rates, ideal for international trading, analysis, conversions, and financial monitoring.

The LBMA Price API is designed to provide accurate and up-to-date information on precious metals prices.

The API returns price data using different currencies of your choice as a basis, ensuring consistency and simplicity for international use. One of its main features is the ability to obtain current and historical prices from the LBMA. Each answer includes not only the USD price, but also the inverse rate, allowing users to easily calculate how many dollars are needed to purchase a single unit of metal. This is especially useful for applications that require dual conversion rates or bidirectional pricing tools.

LBMA Price API FAQs

The LBMA Price API provides real-time and historical prices for precious metals, specifically gold, from the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA).

You can access current and historical LBMA metals prices, as well as inverse rates for conversions, which are useful for trading, analysis, and monitoring.

The API allows you to obtain price data in various currencies of your choice, ensuring consistency and simplicity for international users.

The inverse rate indicates how many dollars are needed to purchase a single unit of metal, making it easier for users to perform dual conversions or utilize bidirectional pricing tools.

Traders, analysts, and anyone monitoring precious metal prices can benefit from the LBMA Price API, as it provides accurate and up-to-date pricing information essential for informed decision-making.

The GET Latest Price endpoint returns the current prices of precious metals, including the USD price and inverse rates for various currencies. It provides data for specific metal symbols, allowing users to access real-time pricing information.

The GET Historical Price endpoint requires three parameters: a currency, a date, and a metal symbol. This allows users to specify the exact historical price data they need for analysis or reporting.

The response data is structured in a JSON format, typically including fields such as the metal symbol, price, currency, and inverse rate. This organization allows for easy parsing and integration into applications.

Key fields in the response include the metal symbol, current price in the specified currency, inverse rate, and timestamp. These fields provide essential information for users to make informed decisions.

The GET Historical Price endpoint provides historical pricing data for precious metals on a specified date, including the price in the chosen currency and the corresponding inverse rate for that date.

Users can customize their requests by selecting different currencies and metal symbols as parameters for both the GET Latest Price and GET Historical Price endpoints, allowing for tailored data retrieval.

Typical use cases include financial analysis, trading strategies, market monitoring, and investment decision-making, where accurate and timely precious metals pricing is crucial.

Data accuracy is maintained through sourcing from the London Bullion Market Association (LBMA), which ensures that the prices reflect real-time market conditions and undergoes regular quality checks for reliability.

General FAQs

Zyla API Hub is like a big store for APIs, where you can find thousands of them all in one place. We also offer dedicated support and real-time monitoring of all APIs. Once you sign up, you can pick and choose which APIs you want to use. Just remember, each API needs its own subscription. But if you subscribe to multiple ones, you'll use the same key for all of them, making things easier for you.

Prices are listed in USD (United States Dollar), EUR (Euro), CAD (Canadian Dollar), AUD (Australian Dollar), and GBP (British Pound). We accept all major debit and credit cards. Our payment system uses the latest security technology and is powered by Stripe, one of the world's most reliable payment companies. If you have any trouble paying by card, just contact us at [email protected]

Additionally, if you already have an active subscription in any of these currencies (USD, EUR, CAD, AUD, GBP), that currency will remain for subsequent subscriptions. You can change the currency at any time as long as you don't have any active subscriptions.

The local currency shown on the pricing page is based on the country of your IP address and is provided for reference only. The actual prices are in USD (United States Dollar). When you make a payment, the charge will appear on your card statement in USD, even if you see the equivalent amount in your local currency on our website. This means you cannot pay directly with your local currency.

Occasionally, a bank may decline the charge due to its fraud protection settings. We suggest reaching out to your bank initially to check if they are blocking our charges. Also, you can access the Billing Portal and change the card associated to make the payment. If these does not work and you need further assistance, please contact our team at [email protected]

Prices are determined by a recurring monthly or yearly subscription, depending on the chosen plan.

API calls are deducted from your plan based on successful requests. Each plan comes with a specific number of calls that you can make per month. Only successful calls, indicated by a Status 200 response, will be counted against your total. This ensures that failed or incomplete requests do not impact your monthly quota.

Zyla API Hub works on a recurring monthly subscription system. Your billing cycle will start the day you purchase one of the paid plans, and it will renew the same day of the next month. So be aware to cancel your subscription beforehand if you want to avoid future charges.

To upgrade your current subscription plan, simply go to the pricing page of the API and select the plan you want to upgrade to. The upgrade will be instant, allowing you to immediately enjoy the features of the new plan. Please note that any remaining calls from your previous plan will not be carried over to the new plan, so be aware of this when upgrading. You will be charged the full amount of the new plan.

To check how many API calls you have left for the current month, refer to the 'X-Zyla-API-Calls-Monthly-Remaining' field in the response header. For example, if your plan allows 1,000 requests per month and you've used 100, this field in the response header will indicate 900 remaining calls.

To see the maximum number of API requests your plan allows, check the 'X-Zyla-RateLimit-Limit' response header. For instance, if your plan includes 1,000 requests per month, this header will display 1,000.

The 'X-Zyla-RateLimit-Reset' header shows the number of seconds until your rate limit resets. This tells you when your request count will start fresh. For example, if it displays 3,600, it means 3,600 seconds are left until the limit resets.

Yes, you can cancel your plan anytime by going to your account and selecting the cancellation option on the Billing page. Please note that upgrades, downgrades, and cancellations take effect immediately. Additionally, upon cancellation, you will no longer have access to the service, even if you have remaining calls left in your quota.

You can contact us through our chat channel to receive immediate assistance. We are always online from 8 am to 5 pm (EST). If you reach us after that time, we will get back to you as soon as possible. Additionally, you can contact us via email at [email protected]

To give you the opportunity to experience our APIs without any commitment, we offer a 7-day free trial that allows you to make up to 50 API calls at no cost. This trial can be used only once, so we recommend applying it to the API that interests you the most. While most of our APIs offer a free trial, some may not. The trial concludes after 7 days or once you've made 50 requests, whichever occurs first. If you reach the 50 request limit during the trial, you will need to "Start Your Paid Plan" to continue making requests. You can find the "Start Your Paid Plan" button in your profile under Subscription -> Choose the API you are subscribed to -> Pricing tab. Alternatively, if you don't cancel your subscription before the 7th day, your free trial will end, and your plan will automatically be billed, granting you access to all the API calls specified in your plan. Please keep this in mind to avoid unwanted charges.

After 7 days, you will be charged the full amount for the plan you were subscribed to during the trial. Therefore, it's important to cancel before the trial period ends. Refund requests for forgetting to cancel on time are not accepted.

When you subscribe to an API free trial, you can make up to 50 API calls. If you wish to make additional API calls beyond this limit, the API will prompt you to perform an "Start Your Paid Plan." You can find the "Start Your Paid Plan" button in your profile under Subscription -> Choose the API you are subscribed to -> Pricing tab.

Payout Orders are processed between the 20th and the 30th of each month. If you submit your request before the 20th, your payment will be processed within this timeframe.
