Frequently Asked Questions

Are the exchange rates real-time or are they delayed? expand_more
Rates are fetched from a live exchange rate API that provides data from global forex markets. Mid-market rates update during market hours (forex markets operate 24 hours on weekdays). The rate you see is the current mid-market rate — the midpoint between buy and sell rates — which is the same rate shown on Google Finance, XE.com, and Bloomberg. There may be a few minutes of delay relative to real-time tick data, but for most purposes (invoicing, budgeting, remittance planning) this is more than sufficient accuracy.
What is the mid-market rate and why is it different from my bank's rate? expand_more
The mid-market rate (also called the interbank rate) is the midpoint between the buying and selling prices at which banks trade currencies with each other. It is the 'true' or 'fair' exchange rate without any markup. When you convert currency through a bank or card payment, the institution adds a margin (spread) above this mid-market rate as profit. This markup ranges from 0.5%–1% at specialized forex services (like Wise), to 2%–3.5% at most Indian retail banks, to 3%–5% at airport forex counters. The tool shows the mid-market rate — always factor in your bank's markup for real-world cost planning.
What is the best way to convert currency for international travel from India? expand_more
For international travel, the most cost-effective approaches in order: (1) Multi-currency forex cards from specialized providers (Niyo, BookMyForex, Thomas Cook Forex) — low markup, locked-in rate, safe to carry. (2) International debit/credit cards with low forex markup (some cards like Niyo Global, Fi Money offer near-mid-market rates). (3) Bank wire transfer or demand draft — moderate markup. (4) Airport forex counters — worst rates, markups of 4%–6% above mid-market. Always compare rates before departing.
Does this tool convert cryptocurrency or only fiat currencies? expand_more
This tool converts only fiat (government-issued) currencies — all 150+ currencies in the standard ISO 4217 list. It does not convert cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.). For crypto conversion, dedicated cryptocurrency exchange rate tools are more appropriate as crypto markets operate on separate liquidity pools and update at much higher frequency.
Can I use this tool to convert historical exchange rates? expand_more
No. The tool provides current mid-market rates only. For historical exchange rates (needed for accounting, tax purposes, or financial reporting), sources like XE.com's historical rate tool, the RBI reference rate archives (rbi.org.in), or the official income tax department forex rate tables provide historical data. For income tax purposes on foreign income, the RBI reference rate on the date of transaction is the correct rate to use.
