Frequently asked questions

Are exchange rates in this converter live?
Rates are fetched from an exchange-rate API and reflect recent market data, but may differ from your bank's final settlement rate.
Why is my card charged differently than converted value?
Banks and payment gateways often add conversion spread, network fees, or transaction charges beyond reference rates.
Can I convert between any two currencies?
Major global currencies are supported. Availability depends on the upstream rates dataset.
How often should I refresh rates?
Refresh before booking, transfer, or checkout because foreign exchange rates can move frequently.
Is this suitable for accounting books?
Use it for estimation and planning. For official accounting, apply your organization's approved rate source and timestamp policy.
