Historical Data for Haitian Gourde (HTG)
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How are the exchange rates on this calculator determined?
Our converter uses the **mid-market rate**, which is the real-time exchange rate found on the global financial markets. It's the midpoint between the "buy" and "sell" prices, ensuring you see the most accurate and fair rate available.
What is the difference between "buy" and "sell" rates?
The "buy rate" is the rate at which a money changer will buy a foreign currency from you. The "sell rate" is the rate at which they will sell it to you. The sell rate is always higher to allow for a profit margin. Our tool shows the rate *before* these fees.
Should I pay in local currency or my home currency abroad?
Always choose to pay in the **local currency** when using your card abroad. If you choose your home currency, the vendor's bank will perform the conversion at a less favorable rate (a process called Dynamic Currency Conversion), costing you more in hidden fees.

Important: "Cash" often includes traveler's checks. These rules can change, so always check the official customs website of your destination country before your trip.
