Fixer.io has discontinued the API used by this module, see https://github.com/fixerAPI/fixer/blob/master/README.md

The new API requires merchants to get an individual access key, so there is no quick fix. The module isn't prepared to handle such a key.

At the same time, EZB's currency exchange rate services can be accessed directly without too much effort, see PHP sample code at the bottom of this page:

Sounds much like this module should be discontinued if favor of a module EZB Currency Exchange Rate Services, right?
