Where the numbers come from

The exchange rate comes from the Frankfurter API, a free feed of European Central Bank reference rates updated each weekday. To keep the tool fast, the rate is cached in your browser's local storage for 6 hours; the timestamp under the result shows when it was last refreshed.

Reading the NZD to USD rate

Dairy prices and Reserve Bank of New Zealand policy drive the New Zealand dollar; it behaves like a smaller, livelier Australian dollar. For everyday use, treat the figure here as the mid-market benchmark: use it to judge quotes: the closer a service's rate is to this benchmark, the cheaper the transfer.
