Usually when two currencies are exchanged, there is a difference between the buy and sell rates. That means, that if you were about to buy EUR for 100USD and then immediatly sell those EUR and buy USD you would end up with just 90USD, or even less. That's the "hidden fee" you pay when exchanging money. The mid-market rate is right in the middle between buy and sell rates. Using Midrate you would get back 100 USD. When you see a conversion rate on midrate.comit will always be calculated at the latest mid-market rate. We suggest using this rate to exchange currencies on Midrate ensuring both you and your exchange partner the fairest deal. Calculating mid-market rates is a complex task. Midrate use the rates calculated by currencylayer.com. The rates on Midrate are refreshed every hour.

Before meeting someone to exchange currencies, become familiar with the security features of the requested banknotes.

Feel the note in your hands and look at it closely; if you have any doubts do not risk the exchange.

Feel of the paper - banknotes are printed on special paper that gives them their unique feel. Print quality - the printed lines and colours on genuine notes will be detailed and sharp and free from smudges or blurred edges. Raised print - by running your fingers across the note you can feel raised prints in specific areas. Metallic thread - there is a metallic thread embedded in many banknotes. If you hold the note up to the light the metallic thread appears as a continuous dark line. Watermark - when the banknote is held up to the light an image can be seen in the paper, usually a portrait similar to that printed on the note. Holographic strip - the strip on a banknote has a number of foil patches along its length which contain alternating holographic images. Goto the currencies page for more information.
