- ARS-USD: Argentine Peso from US Dollar
- BRL-USD: Brazilian Real from US Dollar
- COP-USD: Colombian Peso from US Dollar
- KES-USD: Kenyan Shilling from US Dollar
The format is always [Local Currency]-USD.

The participants_type parameter defines the sender-receiver relationship:

Always use the participants type that matches your actual use case.
