BEHIND THE NUMBERS

How this calculation works

ECB cross-rate = destination units per EUR / source units per EUR. Deduct entered fees in the source currency, then multiply the remainder by the cross-rate. Provider mode uses your direct rate.

Worked example

The 15 October 2026 snapshot quotes 1.1208 USD per EUR; EUR1,000 converts to USD1,120.80 before provider costs.

Example result: 1,120.8

Step 1

Select the dated ECB snapshot or a provider quote, then choose source and destination currencies.

Step 2

ECB mode divides the destination reference rate by the source reference rate; it does not request a precomputed cross-rate.

Step 3

Fees are deducted in the source currency and the remaining amount is converted. The rate date is displayed with the result.

Assumptions and rounding

  • The ECB data is a dated reference snapshot for information, not the amount a dealer will offer.
  • The rate date is shown before the form and in every result. Weekends and TARGET closing days have no new ECB fixing.
