The Canadian dollar (CAD) has recently gained strength, currently trading at 0.7223 against the US dollar (USD), which is significantly above its three-month average of 0.7039. Analysts attribute this overall positive movement in the CAD primarily to unexpectedly strong GDP figures and political stability, following recent elections in Canada. However, as a commodity-linked currency, the CAD remains sensitive to fluctuations in oil prices, and ongoing developments in the oil market could influence its future trajectory.

There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting Canadian dollar to US dollar:
Generally speaking, if you are buying US dollar with Canadian dollar, then it's better for the CAD/USD exchange rate to be higher.
However working against you are the fees all foreign exchange providers charge for providing their service. These fees 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.

Sending money to the U.S. involves more than just choosing a provider. First, make sure you have the correct recipient details, including their account number, bank name, routing or SWIFT code, and sometimes the bank’s address. Mistakes can lead to failed or delayed transfers.
If you’re converting from another currency, pay close attention to the exchange rate. Providers often apply a hidden markup, so comparing rates is essential—especially for larger transfers. Tools like BestExchangeRates.com help you find the best real-time rates. Don’t forget about fees either. These can include service charges, intermediary bank deductions, or fees charged to the recipient, particularly with traditional bank wires.
There are multiple methods available for sending money to the U.S., each with their own pros and cons. Bank transfers are widely used and secure but tend to be slower and more expensive. Online services like Wise, OFX, or WorldRemit offer faster transfers at more competitive rates, while remittance apps like Remitly and Xoom are optimized for speed and convenience. In some cases, cryptocurrency can be used, but this comes with added regulatory and security considerations.
Speed also matters. Digital services like Wise or Remitly can deliver funds within hours or a day, while banks may take several business days. For large amounts, providers may ask for ID due to anti-money laundering regulations. Transfers above $10,000 are generally reported to U.S. authorities, though personal remittances are usually tax-free.
Finally, consider the purpose—whether personal, business, or investment—and choose a method that suits your needs. Online transfer services are often cheaper and faster than banks, and may offer better exchange rates and lower fees.
For the best value, compare your options and plan ahead. A few extra minutes of research can save you a lot in the long run.
