When you're sending money overseas, a good exchange rate can make a big difference to the amount of money that ends up in your recipient's pocket.

Find live Westpac exchange rates here, and compare them to quotes from other providers to make sure you're getting the most competitive exchange rate for your chosen currency. You'll often be able to save money by sending funds through a specialised money transfer service instead of a bank.

What are Westpac's foreign exchange rates?

The table below shows today's Westpac foreign exchange rates, accurate as of 25 June 2021. The "buy" column refers to the price at which Westpac buys other currencies in exchange for Australian dollars. This is how much you'll get when converting other currencies to Australian dollars through Westpac.

The "sells" column shows the price Westpac gives for other currencies. This is how much you'll get when converting Australian dollars into foreign currencies.

The mid-market rate refers to the middle ground between current buy and sell prices on the global currency markets. It's used as the official average price of a currency at any given time.To find out how good your deal is, look at the difference between Westpac's exchange rates and mid-market prices. The difference between them is how much of a margin the provider is taking. Poor exchange rates are in effect similar to a hidden fee.

Sending money with Westpac: What to know

What we like

Multi-currency options. Westpac has potential money-moving alternatives, such as multi-currency travel cards.
Foreign cash and bank drafts. You can also get foreign cash and bank drafts at Westpac.

What to watch out for

Restricted features. Limit orders and forward contracts are for business customers only.
Uncompetitive fees and rates. Westpac's fees are high, and its exchange rates are poor compared to what money transfer specialists offer.

How do Westpac's exchange rates compare?

All of Australia's big 4 banks typically offer similar exchange rates and international transfer fees. So while Westpac's fees and rates are broadly comparable to other banks, they're still worse than what you'll find on offer from a specialist money transfer service.

Use the table below to compare your options and see how much you could save on your next transfer.
