How Exchange Rates Work
An exchange rate tells you how much of one currency you get for one unit of another. For example, an EUR/USD rate of 1.09 means 1 euro buys 1.09 US dollars.
Rates are set by the foreign exchange market (forex), which trades around $7 trillion per day and operates 24 hours a day, five days a week. Retail conversions (at banks, airports, or through apps) always include a spread — the difference between the buy and sell rate — plus any service fees. The rates shown here are mid-market rates, which sit between the buy and sell prices and are used as a reference benchmark.
