What you pay
There is no subscription, no minimum volume and no charge for quotes you do not fill.
Because a quote is a signed order, the rate you see is the rate you get: no re-pricing between the quote and
the fill, no slippage tolerance to set. The quote carries
referenceRate (the midmarket rate it was priced
from) and sellAmount/buyAmount (the exact amounts), so the spread of every quote can be checked.
Midmarket rates
The midmarket rate is the one the maker actually prices from. Today every pair is priced from a public Chainlink feed on Base, read on chain at the moment of the quote.reference.source on each level says
which kind of source the rate came from: chainlink for a feed, api for a rate read from live order books.

Reading it from the API
reference.rate is the midmarket rate, reference.source its kind (chainlink or api), reference.at its
time. No key is needed; the machine-readable form is documented at GET /v1/levels.
