How this converter works

Type any amount in USD and the page multiplies it by the live USD to CHF rate from the Frankfurter API, which mirrors the European Central Bank's daily reference rates. The rate is stored in your browser for 6 hours so repeat visits are instant, and the rate line shows exactly which figure was used.

What moves the USD/CHF rate

The franc strengthens in global crises as a safe haven and softens when markets are calm; Swiss National Bank interventions can cap sharp moves. For everyday use, treat the figure here as the mid-market benchmark: banks and transfer apps will quote a slightly worse retail rate, and the gap between the two is their fee.
