# Supported Corridors & Currencies

> Payment corridors available on Thiqwave.

Thiqwave enables payments across MENA and international corridors with support for both inbound and outbound transfers.

## Payment Corridors

| From         | To                | Direction |
| ------------ | ----------------- | --------- |
| UAE (AED)    | Europe (EUR, GBP) | Outbound  |
| UAE (AED)    | USA (USD)         | Outbound  |
| Europe / USA | UAE (AED)         | Inbound   |

Corridor availability is expanding. If you need a corridor not listed here, contact us — we add new routes based on partner demand.

## Corridor Features

Each corridor defines the available payment methods, settlement speed, and supported currencies for a given region. When you create a quote, the corridor determines:

* Which fiat payment methods are available (bank transfers, instant payment networks)
* Settlement timing and cut-off windows
* Applicable fees and exchange rates
* Compliance requirements specific to the jurisdiction

## How Corridors Work with Quotes

Every transaction references a corridor. When you request a quote, specify the corridor to get accurate pricing:

```bash theme={null}
curl -X POST https://api.thiqwave.com/v1/quotes \
  -H "X-API-Key: your-api-key" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "source_currency": "AED",
    "destination_currency": "EUR",
    "amount": 100000,
    "corridor": "uae",
    "recipient_type": "bank_account"
  }'
```

The quote response includes corridor-specific fees and the guaranteed exchange rate for a 3-minute lock window.
