It's important to note that exchange rates also fluctuate frequently due to market conditions. Additionally, banks and foreign exchange providers often apply a margin to the exchange rate, resulting in a less favorable rate for customers compared to the mid-market rate. For more competitive rates, you might consider using a specialized currency exchange service like Western Union or platforms that offer rates closer to the mid-market rate.
