What Are Mid-Market Exchange Rates?

Mid-market rates — also called interbank rates — represent the midpoint between the buy and sell prices of two currencies on the global foreign exchange market. They are considered the fairest exchange rate available and are the benchmark used by financial institutions like Reuters, Bloomberg, and central banks worldwide. Our currency converter displays these mid-market rates so you can see the true value of your money before banks, credit card companies, or money transfer services add their markup.

Why Rates Differ From Your Bank

When you exchange currency at a bank, airport kiosk, or through a credit card transaction, the rate you receive typically includes a markup of 1% to 5% above the mid-market rate. This is how financial institutions earn revenue on foreign exchange transactions. By comparing the mid-market rate shown on our converter with your bank's offered rate, you can calculate exactly how much markup you're paying and make informed decisions about where to exchange your money.

Popular Currency Pairs

The most frequently converted currency pairs on our platform include USD to EUR (US Dollar to Euro), GBP to USD (British Pound to US Dollar), USD to INR (US Dollar to Indian Rupee), USD to CAD (US Dollar to Canadian Dollar), AUD to USD (Australian Dollar to US Dollar), and EUR to GBP (Euro to British Pound).
