# Currency converter

Currency converters are data services that allow you to exchange prices from FIAT currency to crypto or from crypto to crypto.

CryptoPay has a built-in CryptoCompare API, which includes all popular cryptocurrency prices.

However, if you have private tokens and want to get paid with them. Or if CryptoCompare doesn't have the price value of any token you want to get paid with. You will need to purchase the external currency converter API add-ons and use the services below.

For example, if you have your own private token and it is listed on Coin Market Cap, you can get the price of your token with the Coin Market Cap currency converter. Or if your token is listed on a DEX, you can get the price of your token with Moralis. It's also worth checking if your token is listed on the API first.
