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.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often are exchange rates updated?
Rates are fetched from a live source and cached for several hours to keep the tool fast and reliable. The "last updated" timestamp shown with your result tells you exactly how current the rate is.
Are these rates suitable for sending money abroad?
These are mid-market reference rates, ideal for estimates. Banks and money-transfer services add a margin or fee, so the rate you actually receive when sending money will usually be slightly less favorable.
What currencies are supported?
The converter supports 30+ major currencies, including USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CAD, AUD, CHF, CNY, INR, and many more, all quoted relative to the US dollar.
Why do rates differ from my bank?
Banks and payment providers apply their own spread or markup on top of the mid-market rate and may charge fixed fees. That is how they make money on currency exchange, so their quoted rate differs from the reference rate shown here.
Is this free to use?
Yes. The currency converter is completely free, with no signup or limits. Convert as often as you like.
Can I convert historical rates?
No. This tool shows current (recently cached) rates only. For historical exchange rates on a specific past date, use a dedicated historical-rates service or your central bank’s published reference rates.
