Frequently asked questions
How often are exchange rates updated?
Rates refresh automatically every hour. They're sourced from the European Central Bank via the Frankfurter API, with a secondary provider used only if that service is temporarily unavailable.
Is this the same rate my bank will give me?
This shows the live "mid-market" rate — the actual rate currencies trade at between banks. Banks and money-transfer services typically add a markup or fee on top of this rate, so the amount you actually receive may be slightly different.
Do I need an account to use this?
No. The converter is completely free and works instantly with no sign-up.
Is my data uploaded anywhere?
No personal or financial data is collected. The tool only fetches public exchange-rate data; nothing you type is stored or transmitted anywhere.
Can I convert any amount?
Yes — there's no minimum or maximum. Type any amount and the conversion updates immediately.
