    The average monthly exchange rate gives you a clear snapshot of how one currency performed against another over an entire month. Instead of reacting to daily market swings, this figure shows a more stable view of the trend, making it easier to understand whether the rate has been moving in your favour or not.

     

    Many individuals and businesses use monthly averages to plan ahead, lock in better rates, or time their transfers more strategically. By tracking these averages, you can make smarter decisions, manage costs more effectively, and take advantage of opportunities when the market moves in your favour.

    This company is awesome. Saved me hundreds in FX from what my bank was going to charge. Very fast and professional. I was nervous to wire money at first but they walked me through it and the funds were back in my account in the same day. Highly recommend!
