FAQ
What is the 'Mid-Market Rate'?
The mid-market rate is the real exchange rate—the halfway point between the buy and sell prices of two currencies. It is what banks use when trading with each other.
Why do I get a different rate at the bank?
Banks and exchange services add a 'spread' (margin) to the mid-market rate. This is how they make a profit, meaning you receive less of the target currency.
