Kiva's mission is to connect people through lending for the sake of alleviating poverty. It is the world's first person-to-person micro-lending website, empowering individuals to lend directly to unique entrepreneurs in the developing world.

"At Kiva, we use XE to provide us with critical foreign currency information for converting our loans in and out of local currencies. Any downtime can seriously impact both our lenders and borrowers. Thankfully, our feed has performed beautifully. The simplicity of integration and excellent reliability make XE a great fit for our organization."
- Jonathan, Kiva

Kiva helps empower entrepreneurs from over 40 developing countries. The currency exchange rate data provided by XE is used in many different ways, one of which is the conversion of an entrepreneur's loan amount from their local currency to a U.S. dollar equivalent.

Incorporated in June 2002 as a not-for-profit private organization, The MIX (Microfinance Information eXchange) aims to promote information exchange in the microfinance industry.

"As one of the world's leading sources of information about microfinance, MIX needs reliable exchange rates data for every currency imaginable. XE has been a highly reliable source and a wonderful partner for many years."
- Peter, Executive Director

Microfinance seeks to meet the financial needs of those populations excluded from formal financial services, especially the poor. Through small loans, savings, access to payment facilities, insurance or other financial services, microfinance institutions (MFIs) help the poor reduce their vulnerability to external shocks, increase their incomes and build businesses.
