Example Request (Basic authentication)

```shell

     --user <your api client_id>:<your api client_secret>

    "source": "EUR",
    "target": "USD",
    "time": "2018-08-31T10:43:31+0000"
  }
]
```

## Get pricing and speed

**`POST https://api.sandbox.transferwise.tech/v2/quotes`**

**Is currency route supported?**

If we don't support a route then this endpoint will respond with an error code "error.route.not.supported".

**How much does a transfer cost?**

The Wise fee is included in the response.

**How long does my transfer take?**

Estimated delivery time is included in the response.
This can vary quite a lot for different currency routes. For example transfers often only take a few hours from EUR to GBP, while sending money from USD can take 1-2 business days.
This endpoint allows you to find out the estimated delivery time for each currency route.
