Currency converter

Convert any amount at the live mid-market rate. The CFA franc is pegged to the euro, so that pair never moves.

How it works

  1. Pick the two currencies and an amount.
  2. We use mid-market rates, updated daily. This is the rate with no margin.
  3. The CFA franc (XOF and XAF) is pegged to the euro at 655.957, so euro to CFA never changes.

Questions

Why is the rate different from my bank or app?

Banks and apps add a margin to the mid-market rate. Use the true cost checker to see how much you lose.

What is the difference between XOF and XAF?

XOF is used in West Africa (Benin, Senegal, Côte d’Ivoire, Togo, Mali, Burkina Faso, Niger) and XAF in Central Africa (Cameroon, Gabon, Congo). Both are worth the same, but they are not interchangeable in the countries concerned.
