What is the mid-market rate?

It's the midpoint between the prices at which banks buy and sell a currency, and the fairest measure of what it's worth. Banks, card issuers and exchange counters add a margin on top, so the amount you actually receive is usually a little lower.

Can I use these rates for a real transaction?

They're for information. Rates move during the day and every provider sets its own, so check the exact rate and fees with your bank or payment service before you send money.

Which currencies are supported?
