Questions

Is this the rate I would get at a bank?

No. These are daily reference rates, close to the mid-market rate. Banks and transfer services add a margin and fees, so the amount you receive is usually lower.

How often is the rate updated?

Once a day. The latest figure here is dated 23 Oct 2026 and is not real time.

Where does the data come from?

Frankfurter, an open service that publishes daily reference rates. Confirm with your bank or provider before you transact.
