Why our CHF to USD rate has no second version

Most websites publishing CHF to USD exchange rates are run by money-transfer services. They display the mid-market rate to attract visitors, then quote a different "customer rate" once you start a transaction — typically a 0.4–4% markup, sometimes more. Currency.Wiki doesn't sell transfers, so the rate above (1 CHF = 1.2294 USD) is the only rate we have to give you. There is no second rate applied later. Same number, different incentive.

More about CHF to USD

Pair-specific questions we hear most often from Currency.Wiki users converting CHF to USD.

What's the difference between Currency.Wiki's CHF to USD rate and Wise, XE, or OFX?
On any given second, the mid-market rate for CHF to USD is roughly the same across every reputable source. The difference is what each site does with that number. Wise, XE, OFX, Revolut and similar services are money-transfer providers — they show the mid-market rate publicly but quote a different rate when you start a transfer (typically a 0.4–4% markup). Currency.Wiki doesn't transfer money, so the rate you see here (1 CHF = 1.2294 USD) is the only rate we have to give you. There is no second rate.
How much is 100 CHF, 500 CHF, and 1,000 CHF in USD right now?
At today's mid-market rate of 1 CHF = 1.2294 USD: 100 CHF = 122.94 USD, 500 CHF = 614.70 USD, and 1,000 CHF = 1,229.41 USD. For other amounts, use the converter at the top of this page — it updates instantly as you type.
Why does the CHF to USD rate I see at the bank differ from the rate here?
Banks and currency exchange counters add a markup to the mid-market rate to cover their costs and margin. A typical bank spread for CHF/USD is 1–4% above the mid-market rate, plus fixed fees. The rate on Currency.Wiki is the wholesale interbank rate without any markup — it's the same number banks see before they price their consumer offering.
What was the highest CHF to USD rate in the past 52 weeks?
Based on our 15+ years of historical rate data, the CHF/USD pair's 52-week range is 1.2203 – 1.3108. The 30-day range is 1.2196 – 1.2427. For longer historical periods (3, 5, 10 or 15 years), view the full historical chart on the historical rates page.
Are there fees or limits to convert CHF to USD on Currency.Wiki?
Converting is free and unlimited for everyone — no signup, no fees, no markup, no daily limits. Currency.Wiki isn't a money-transfer service, so there's no transaction at the end where we apply a margin. A free account adds optional features (favorites, rate alerts, presets, PDF/CSV exports); Web Pro at $3.99/month removes ads and lifts daily limits on exports.
