What is the mid-market exchange rate?
The mid-market exchange rate is the reference rate between the prices at which currencies are bought and sold in the global foreign-exchange market. It is sometimes described as the interbank or market rate.
Kredly uses the mid-market rate as an informational baseline for currency conversion. If the USD/EUR rate is 0.87, for example, one US dollar is worth approximately 0.87 euros before any provider fee or exchange-rate markup is applied.
The first currency in a pair is the base currency and the second is the quote currency. A USD/EUR rate shows how many euros one US dollar can buy.
The mid-market rate is not a guaranteed customer rate or transfer quote. Banks, card issuers and money transfer providers may use a different exchange rate and add fees or other charges.
