# Improving rates for specific PSPs

{% hint style="warning" %}
This page relates **only** to third-party FX Providers.

For Source PSPs that provide their own FX, a different process applies. See [Payment setup for PSPs who provide their own FX](/payment-processing/payment-setup-for-psps-who-provide-their-own-fx.md)for details.
{% endhint %}

## PSP-based improvements <a href="#toc163809592" id="toc163809592"></a>

FX Providers may also want to offer **improved rates to specific PSPs**. In Nexus this works as follows:

* An FXP may define the PSPs to which it wishes to offer improved rates
* For each PSP, the FXP may define how much the base rate must be improved, in basis points.
* This improvements applies to **all quotes issued to that PSP by the FXP**, for all currencies.

{% hint style="warning" %}
It is not possible for an FXP to set different PSP-based improvements for different currencies.
{% endhint %}

* When a Source PSP calls the `GET /quotes` API, Nexus will review the table of relationships between FXPs and PSPs, and extract any relevant preferential rates for that PSP.
* Nexus will then apply the relevant improvement to the FXP's base rate.
* An FXP may choose not to set any PSP-based improvements. If no PSP-based improvement is set for a specific PSP, the base rate will apply.

{% hint style="warning" %}
PSP-based improvements only need to be set once by the FXP, and will continue to apply for that FXP until the FXP updates or deletes the tiers.
{% endhint %}

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.nexusglobalpayments.org/fx-provision/rates-from-third-party-fx-providers/improving-rates-for-specific-psps.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
