About

World Cross-Border Payment Cost shows what a quoted international payment really costs. fx_margin_vs_reference compares a provider's quoted exchange rate with the European Central Bank's euro foreign exchange reference rate (crossed through the euro for the pair) and gives the margin in percent. total_cost adds the visible fees and shows the total cost as a percentage of the amount with the working laid out. compare_quotes ranks several quotes by the amount that arrives and shows each one's margin and cost against the reference. rate_for_margin gives the rate that would correspond to a chosen margin below the reference, and reference_rate shows the reference rate itself with its publication date. The ECB states that its reference rates are not intended for market transactions and are for information only: the reference is a yardstick for comparison, never a rate at which money can be exchanged, and every answer says so. Rates are read from the ECB's public files; dates without a publication (weekends and TARGET closing days) use the previous publication and say so. Corridor benchmarks from the World Bank and the G20 cross-border targets are not included in this version because their figures could not be read from the official pages.

Sources: Reference data from official sources (ecb.europa.eu); every answer states its source, date and validity period.
