USD/AUD change over periods to 26-Jan-2022

The Aussie dollar hit a recent high near 0.755 USD in late October but then dropped back to 0.70 into December. The catalyst was a successfully dovish Reserve Bank of Australia. The RBA reiterated that it doesn’t see rate hikes until 2024, as wages are expected to increase only moderately. Into the new year 2022 the Aussie has risen back to 0.72 against the greenback.

* This table compares FX rates & fees of selected FX specialists and banks for USD to AUD International Money Transfers. Providers must be well established, reputable and regulated in the US as licensed money transmitters. We DO NOT compare every provider in the market. We may receive referral fees if you choose one of these providers however this will not affect the savings, exchange rates or fees you are charged by the provider.

Exchange rates available for foreign transfers and currency exchange always contain either a rate margin from the Latest USD to AUD Exchange Rate (shown above) or a transaction fee and often both!

How to get a good USD to AUD Exchange Rate

There are two important ways to save on Foreign Exchange, the first is minimising unnecessary or excessive costs and fees, and the other is to transact when the exchange rate is in your favour.

Reduce Excessive costs and fees

All foreign exchange providers charge a fee for providing their service and this fee is usually contained within the exchange rate margin (or difference to the mid-rate).

The transaction margin you end up being charged can be considerably reduced by around a few percent (of total amount being exchanged) for travel money and possibly over 5% to 6% when sending money. The exact potential savings depends on the currencies being exchanged and the amount you are transferring and if you are willing to shop around.

Our real-time foreign transfer and travel money/cards comparison calculators make shopping around easy and help you calculate how much you can save.

You can also read our practical guide to getting the Best Deals for your Foreign Transfers and Travel Money to Australia.

Will the US dollar rise against the Australian dollar?

It is almost impossible to predict what an exchange rate will do in the future, the best approach is to monitor the currency markets and transact when an exchange rate moves in your favour.

To help with this you can add USD/AUD to your BestExchangeRates My Rates Watchlist to track and benefit from currency movements.

Rate Tracker

Rather than requiring you to set a target rate, our FX Alerts work differently.

Once you add a currency pair for tracking in your watchlist we can select to be notified daily for any UP▲ DOWN▼ HIGH▲ LOW▼ alerts over a range of periods over the recent 90 days.
