How does the currency converter work?

Which rate is used?

The tool uses reference rates published daily by a data provider and shows the source and update time at the top of the page. Because every rate is calculated through a common base currency, each pair among the US dollar, euro, Turkish lira, pound and Swiss franc is converted with a consistent cross rate.

Cross rates and inverse rates

A cross rate is the ratio between two currencies calculated through a third one; the EUR/TRY rate, for example, can be derived from EUR/USD and USD/TRY. The inverse rate is the same ratio read the other way round and shows, for instance, how many euros one Turkish lira is worth. The tool shows the inverse rate of your chosen pair below the result.

How it differs from bank and bureau prices

A reference rate can be thought of as a value lying between the buying and selling prices that banks and exchange bureaus offer their customers. Institutions add a spread, commission and sometimes a fixed fee on top of it. The converter’s result is therefore a starting point for the amount you will pay or receive; check the institution’s current quote before a transaction.

Typical uses

To estimate what an overseas purchase will cost on your card, convert an invoice in a foreign currency into lira or plan a travel budget, pick one of the quick amount buttons or type in your own amount. Card payments use the bank’s own rate and fees. You can follow how rates move during the day on the exchange rates page.
