FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions About Currency Conversion

Find answers to common questions about exchange rates and international transfers:

What is the mid-market exchange rate?

The mid-market rate is the midpoint between the buy and sell prices of two currencies. It's the rate banks use when trading with each other and is the fairest rate available. Google and XE.com show mid-market rates.

Why is my bank's exchange rate different?

Banks and money transfer services add a markup to the mid-market rate. This hidden fee can range from 0.5% to 3% or more. Traditional banks average 10.5% in total costs according to World Bank data.

How much can I save using a specialist service?

Specialist money transfer services typically cost 1-2% compared to 10.5% for banks. On a $1,000 transfer, this can save you over $50.

What is a rate markup?

A rate markup is a hidden fee where the provider gives you a worse exchange rate than the mid-market rate. The difference is their profit. Always compare the rate you're offered against the mid-market rate.

Are exchange rates the same everywhere?

No. Exchange rates vary by provider, time of day, and market conditions. Rates update every 60 seconds during market hours. Weekends and holidays often have worse rates.
