Quick answer

A currency converter multiplies your amount by an exchange rate. Use the live-rate button for a quick lookup where supported, or type a rate from your bank, card provider or exchange service.

Converted amount = original amount × exchange rate Example: £100 × 1.20 = €120
Important: Live market rates, bank rates and holiday-money rates can differ. Fees, spreads and card charges may also affect the final amount.

Live rate vs bank rate

The rate shown by a converter may not be the exact rate you receive. Banks, card providers and bureaux de change may add a margin or fee.

Mid-market rateA common reference rate between buy and sell prices.
Card provider rateThe rate your card network or bank applies to a transaction.
Cash exchange rateOften includes a wider spread than digital conversion.
Manual rateUseful when you already know the exact rate being offered.

FAQs

Is this a live currency converter?

The page can try to fetch a live rate in the browser. If that fails, you can still enter a rate manually.

Will the rate match my bank?

Not always. Your bank, card provider or exchange service may use a different rate and may charge fees.

What does inverse rate mean?

The inverse rate shows the reverse conversion. For example, if 1 GBP equals 1.20 EUR, then 1 EUR equals about 0.8333 GBP.
