Frequently asked questions

How often is the exchange rate updated?

The rate is updated regularly. For critical financial transactions always verify the current rate with your bank or a financial institution, as rates vary by provider.

Why does the rate I get differ from my bank?

Banks and currency exchanges add a spread or fee to the interbank rate. The rate shown by BoltConverter is the mid-market rate, which is the midpoint between the buy and sell rates and is typically better than what retail banks offer.

What is the mid-market rate?

The mid-market rate (also called the interbank rate) is the midpoint between the rates at which banks buy and sell a currency. It is the fairest reference rate but is not typically available to individual consumers directly.

Can I convert GBP to USD instead?

Yes. BoltConverter has a GBP to USD converter for the reverse direction.

Is this suitable for large international transfers?

For large transfers, always compare rates from specialist currency transfer services like Wise or OFX, which offer rates much closer to the mid-market rate than traditional banks.
