What this number means
This is an indicative mid-market reference rate โ not a guaranteed bank, card, or cash-exchange quote. Providers typically add fees and margins on top of it. We show the update time so you can judge freshness before making a decision, and crypto conversions especially should be treated as a snapshot, not a live trading price.
Where the rates come from
We separate the live data engine that actually powers each conversion from official central-bank benchmarks you can independently check it against.
Frankfurter + Currency API
Rates for the 31 most commonly traded currencies come from Frankfurter, which republishes the European Central Bank's own daily reference rates. Everything else โ smaller-economy currencies and cryptocurrencies โ comes from a separately maintained, openly published aggregated dataset, updated daily.
Frankfurter data service โEuropean Central Bank
Publishes euro foreign-exchange reference rates on working days โ the actual underlying source for our major-currency rates above, and independently checkable on the ECB's own site.
ECB reference rates โFederal Reserve
Publishes selected foreign-exchange rates (the H.10 release). It's a widely trusted benchmark you can cross-check against โ not the direct engine for every currency shown here.
Federal Reserve H.10 โBank of England
Official exchange-rate statistics and time series for sterling and selected currencies โ another independent benchmark for cross-checking rates involving GBP.
