Laravel Currency Converter
==========================

[](#laravel-currency-converter)

This package is built for laravel with a view to get the currency rates and convert single and multiple currency to another currency. This uses  for fetching rates. This package supports 170 currencies.

There are 4 types of plan in open exchange rate. By using free plan and it's api key one would only be able to get rates/convert currency based on USD. So the suggestion is to use any of other 3 plan and it's api key.
