Always compare rates from multiple providers before exchanging. Banks, online services, and currency exchange offices often have different rates and fees.
Monitor Rate Trends
Use our historical charts to understand rate trends. If the rate is moving in your favor, it might be worth waiting. If it's moving against you, consider exchanging sooner.
