How Currency Conversion Works
Convert money between major world currencies using built-in default exchange rates or your own custom rate. Enter an amount, select currencies, and see the converted total plus the effective and inverse exchange rates.
Method used
The calculator multiplies the entered amount by the selected exchange rate. Default rates are static reference values; you can enter a custom rate from your bank or a live feed.
Converted amount = amount × exchange rate
Practical example
Converting $1,000 USD to EUR at a rate of 0.92 gives €920. At 1.08 USD/EUR the same €1,000 equals about $1,080.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are the exchange rates live market rates?
No. Default rates are static reference values for quick estimates, not live forex data. For exact conversions, enable the custom rate option and enter the rate from your bank, card issuer, or a live forex source.
How do I use a custom exchange rate?
Check the custom exchange rate box and enter how many units of the target currency equal one unit of the source currency. For example, if 1 USD equals 0.92 EUR, enter 0.92 when converting USD to EUR.
Which currencies are supported?
The calculator includes major currencies such as USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CAD, AUD, CHF, INR, MXN, and CNY. You can convert between any pair in the list using default or custom rates.
What is the inverse exchange rate?
The inverse rate shows how much of the source currency equals one unit of the target currency. If 1 USD equals 0.92 EUR, the inverse is approximately 1.087 USD per EUR.
Does this include bank fees or spreads?
No. Banks and card networks often add a markup or spread on top of the mid-market rate. Use a custom rate that matches your actual transaction rate for the most accurate personal estimate.
