Where do the rates come from?

Rates come from the open ExchangeRate-API service, updated once a day from multiple banking sources, and are cached on your device for a few hours so the tool stays fast even on weak connections. The last update time is shown below the tool. These are mid-market rates — the midpoint between buy and sell prices.

Why is my bank's rate different?

Banks, exchange offices and money transfer services add a margin to the market rate — buying currency from you for less and selling it for more — and may add fixed fees. Use the converter to know the fair value, then compare offers and choose the cheapest. The gap between the market rate and the rate you're offered is the real cost of the exchange.

Tips when exchanging money

• Avoid exchanging at airports and hotels; they're usually the most expensive.
• When paying by card abroad, choose to pay in the local currency rather than your home currency to avoid poor conversion rates.
• Some currencies, such as the Moroccan dirham and Tunisian dinar, can't be taken out of the country in large amounts — check the rules before traveling.
• To calculate the Zakat nisab in your currency, use the Zakat Calculator.
