How Exchange Rates Work
Understand foreign exchange mechanics, market volatility, and payout spreads.
What is an exchange rate?
An exchange rate defines the relative value of one currency against another in global foreign exchange markets. It determines how much target currency you receive for each unit of your source currency.
Why do exchange rates change?
Rates fluctuate continuously due to macroeconomic factors including interest rate decisions, inflation data, trade balances, and geopolitical events. These shifts change supply and demand across currency markets.
Why do banks use different rates than the market rate?
Live market exchange rates represent the midpoint between wholesale buy and sell prices in live market trading. Commercial banks and payment platforms add a hidden markup (spread) above this rate to cover operating costs and profit.
Why might my received amount differ from the quoted rate?
Your final settlement depends on the execution timestamp, provider FX markups, and intermediary receiving bank fees. Fluctuations between invoice issue and settlement date can also create rate variance.
