Frequently Asked Questions
- How current are the exchange rates?
- Exchange rates are fetched from a public rates API and are typically updated once per day. For real financial transactions always consult your bank or a regulated exchange provider, as interbank rates differ from retail rates.
- Why does the rate I see differ from my bank's rate?
- Banks and currency exchange services add a spread (markup) on top of the mid-market rate, plus transaction fees. The rate shown here is the mid-market (interbank) rate — the midpoint between buy and sell rates — which is the fairest reference rate but not the rate you'll receive at a bank.
- Which currencies are supported?
- The tool supports 20+ major and commonly traded currencies including USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CAD, AUD, CHF, CNY, INR, MXN, BRL, SGD, HKD, NOK, SEK, DKK, NZD, ZAR, AED, and more.
- Can I use this tool for historical exchange rate lookups?
- This tool shows current rates only. For historical rates, services like the European Central Bank (ECB) Statistical Data Warehouse or the Federal Reserve provide free historical exchange rate data going back decades.
- How do I calculate a currency conversion manually?
- Multiply the amount by the exchange rate. For example, if 1 USD = 0.92 EUR, then 100 USD = 100 × 0.92 = 92 EUR. To go the other direction, divide: 92 EUR ÷ 0.92 = 100 USD.
