Currency Converter

Convert between major world currencies using the exchange rate you choose

What is the Currency Converter?

The Currency Converter converts an amount from one currency to another using an exchange rate you enter, and shows the reverse rate for reference. It supports all major world currencies — including USD, GBP, EUR, CAD, AUD, INR, JPY and more — so it works equally well for travel budgeting, online shopping, invoicing international clients, or comparing prices across countries.

How to Use the Currency Converter

  1. Enter the amount you want to convert.
  2. Select the "From" currency (the currency you currently have).
  3. Select the "To" currency (the currency you want to convert into).
  4. Enter the current exchange rate — look this up from a live source such as your bank, XE.com, or a search engine, since rates change constantly throughout the day.
  5. Read the result — the converted amount and the reverse exchange rate.

Why You Need to Enter the Rate Yourself

Exchange rates move continuously during trading hours and can shift meaningfully within minutes. Rather than display a rate that could be stale or inaccurate by the time you use it, this tool lets you plug in a live rate from a trusted source, guaranteeing the conversion reflects the actual rate you're working with — whether that's a bank's rate, a card network's rate, or a live market rate.

Conversion Formula

Converted Amount = Amount × Exchange Rate
Reverse Rate = 1 ÷ Exchange Rate

Example Calculation

Converting $1,000 USD to EUR at an exchange rate of 0.92 (1 USD = 0.92 EUR): Converted Amount = 1,000 × 0.92 = €920. The reverse rate shows that 1 EUR = approximately 1.0870 USD.

Frequently Asked Questions

Your bank's website or app, a currency site such as XE.com or Google's built-in currency converter, all show live mid-market rates. Note that banks and card providers often apply their own margin on top of the mid-market rate, so the rate you're actually charged may differ slightly.

Exchange rates change by the second and vary depending on the source (bank, card network, or market rate). Rather than risk showing an outdated or misleading figure, this tool asks you to enter the exact rate you're working with, so the conversion is always accurate to your situation.

No, this is a straight mathematical conversion at the rate you supply. Banks, card issuers and money transfer services often add their own fee or margin on top of the market rate, so your actual cost may be higher than the converted amount shown here.

This tool performs a simple calculation based on the rate you provide — it does not offer live market data or financial advice.
