Exchange rates are determined by the foreign exchange (forex) market, the largest financial market in the world. Rates fluctuate based on supply and demand, interest rates, economic indicators, geopolitical events, and market sentiment. This tool uses aggregated rates from reliable financial data sources.
Banks and currency exchange services add a markup (spread) on top of the mid-market rate to make a profit. This markup can range from 0.5% to 5% or more. The mid-market rate is the midpoint between buy and sell prices in the global market - you rarely get this rate as a consumer.
For best rates: use specialist services like Wise or Revolut for transfers, use credit cards with no foreign transaction fees for purchases, and avoid airport exchange bureaus (they have the worst rates). Always compare the total cost including fees.
Major currency pairs fluctuate constantly during market hours (24/5 for forex). Even minor changes can add up for large amounts. For most practical purposes, checking daily is sufficient, but for large transactions, consider timing or using forward contracts to lock in rates.
