Convert 30+ currencies at live mid-market rates with edge caching and offline fallback — for global pricing and expenses

📌 TL;DR Summary & Citation: [Currency Converter] is a networked PocketKit live-data tool for Convert 30+ currencies at live mid-market rates with edge caching and offline fallback — for global pricing and expenses. Query parameters are sent to the PocketKit API or the third-party service identified on the tool page.

How currency conversion works

The tool fetches live USD-based mid-market rates from the server (cached ~1h at Cloudflare's edge) and computes A→B as rate[B]/rate[A]. If the live feed is unavailable it falls back to built-in reference rates and says so. All conversion happens in your browser.

Shown rates are mid-market and exclude bank spreads and fees, so what you actually receive is usually a little less — treat it as a reference.
When it says "offline reference rates" the live feed is down and values may be stale — verify with your bank for important amounts.

FAQ

1. How often do rates update, and are they accurate?

They are live mid-market rates from a public FX source, refreshed about hourly via Cloudflare edge caching. They are a market reference and differ from the rate your bank actually executes.

2. Why doesn't the result match my bank or payment app?

The shown rate is mid-market and excludes bank spreads, cross-border fees and conversion charges, so what you receive is usually a bit less. Use this for quick estimates, not as a settlement figure.

3. What does "offline reference rates" mean?

It means the live feed is temporarily unreachable and the tool fell back to built-in approximate rates so it still works, but the values may be stale. For important amounts rely on your bank's or processor's live rate.
