# FX Payments

Convert and send your balance as single instruction

What we call "FX Payment" is a fully orchestrated account to account delivery of any currency(-ies) we support. Typical examples:

* You need to send from the EU to Australia. You would have a European virtual IBAN on your name. As soon as you deposit some EUR to it - you'll see a corresponding amount of AUD on your master balance in a matter of minutes, which you'll be able to use immediately.
* You need to fund someone's overseas IBAN in Euros. You send us the AUD and give us the recipient's details either via API or via you FlashConnect back-office GUI. We orchestrate the rest.

You can [create payments](/fx/payments/send-funds.md). using the `createPayment` mutation.

You can [retrieve](/fx/payments/query-payments.md) your payments with the `payments` query.

But before you need to understand the supported delivery methods using the [availableDeliveryMethods](/moving-funds/recipients/delivery-methods.md) query.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://developer.flash-payments.com/fx/payments.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
