How this currency converter works
This tool converts between 30+ currencies using recent market (mid-market) exchange rates. The mid-market rate is the midpoint between the buy and sell prices that banks trade at with each other, and it is the rate you see quoted on financial news sites. Enter an amount, pick your two currencies, and the conversion updates instantly; one click swaps the direction.
Why your bank gives a different rate
The rate you actually get from a bank, card, or money-transfer service is almost always worse than the mid-market rate, because providers add a margin (a markup on the rate) and sometimes a fixed fee. That spread is how they make money on the exchange. When comparing services for a real transfer, look at the total amount the recipient receives, not just the advertised rate or the headline "no fee" claim.
How often do rates change?
Exchange rates move continuously during the trading week as supply and demand shift with economic news, interest-rate decisions, and market sentiment. The figures here reflect recent rates and are ideal for quick estimates, shopping comparisons, travel budgeting, and understanding roughly what a price in another currency is worth.
Common uses
- Estimating the cost of an overseas purchase or subscription priced in another currency.
- Budgeting spending money before a trip.
- Sanity-checking the rate a bank or transfer service is offering you.
- Comparing salaries, invoices, or prices across countries.
Rates are indicative and intended for general reference, not for executing trades or financial decisions. Confirm the exact rate with your provider before transferring money.
