Currency Exchange

Currency exchange is changing one currency to another for the purpose of travel, purchase or investment. According to a study of Bank for International Settlements, daily average was more than $6 trillion trading volume. Currency Mart acts as a counter-party to an off-exchange or an over-the-counter forex transaction of cash, financial instruments, futures contracts, options on futures contracts. Currency exchange is a decentralized market and operates 24 hours per day around the globe. London, New York and Tokyo are the three major currency exchange markets and followed by cities of Hong Kong and Singapore. Decentralized market means each currency exchange broker offers its own buy in and sell out exchange rates. The rates are determined based on the demand, inventory and supply of the particular dealer and also the interbank rates at that moment. That is why exchange rates at the same moment are similar, but different broker to broker.

Canadian Currency Exchange Market

Annually, about $600 billion Canadian dollars exchanged to other currencies, over 50% is changed to US dollar and Euro dollar is the second most wanted currency. RBC is the major player in Canadian foreign exchange market. With the other four major banks, banks count 90% of market transaction volume. In addition to banks, large corporations who deal with petroleum or grains conduct massive amount of foreign exchange transactions. Licensed brokers who serve retail clients and small businesses fill up the rest of market gap.

Winnipeg Currency Exchange Market

The demand of currency exchange in Winnipeg is mainly from agricultural actives, because most farmers sell their grains to United States and get payment by us dollars. In addition, purchasing property, vehicle, pay tuition and travel expense are supplements of the currency exchange market in Winnipeg. In fact, the amount of exchanging USD to CAD is much more than exchanging CAD to USD.

Exchange Rate

Exchange rate is updated every 5 minutes, 24 hours a day, 7 days per week. Each exchange rate comes with 2 expressions, which express the same rate in 2 different ways. Each expression is 4 digits accuracy.

USD CAD

USD CAD exchange is the most important trading currency pair in Canada. The particular currency pair can count up to 50% of transaction volumne for a Canadian currency exchange broker. For some province, the percentage is even higher. Currency Mart as a currency exchange dealer, we always keep USD currency in stock for customers demand.

Currency Exchange Winnipeg - FAQ

Our rates are not as same as other Winnipeg currency exchange dealers. Each dealer set up its owner currency exchange rates based on the mid-market rates and adjusted the mark up according to its inventory level and other factors. One thing for sure is since our mark up are lower than banks, the currency exchange rates we offer are better than banks.

Google or their media posts the mid-market exchange rate, which is the average number between a buy in rate and a sell out rate. The mid-market rate is a good reference number for general public to have a brief idea what the current exchange rate right now, but the mid-market rate is not the rate that the financial market is currently trading at. In addition, Google or other media posts a rate which usually is about at least 20 minutes ago. When we trade at Currency Mart, we apply up to second live rates.

If you pay attention to currency exchange rate long enough, you will have a brief idea what is happening now and you may have a sense of prediction what will happen in the next a few months. Oppositely, as a currency exchange dealer, we have no idea what will happen during the same day or even during the same week.

As a currency exchange dealer, we need adjust our exchange rates everyday in order to stay competitive. We adjust our exchange rates based on our inventory level, current trend of the particular currency, competitor's exchange rate. The general rules are described below.

  • If our current inventory level is more than desired, we will lower our rate to speed up the sales. Oppositely, if our inventory is less than ideal, we will rise our rate to slow down the sales.
  • If the current trend for a currency is going up, we need rise our exchange rate, because the replacement cost for the particular currency will be higher. Otherwise, we will reduce our rate because we will lose value anyway if we keep the currency in stock.
  • If we need speed up sales, we need set up our rate lower than competitors'.

We do not accept foreign coins.

As for Canadian coins, we only accept the following amounts for the following denominations:

  • Fifty dollars ($50), or the equivalent of one roll of two dollar ($2.00) coins
  • Twenty-five dollars ($25), or the equivalent of one roll of one dollar ($1.00) coins
  • Ten dollars ($10), or the equivalent of one roll of twenty-five cent ($0.25) coins
  • Five dollars ($5), or the equivalent of one roll of ten cent ($0.10) coins
  • Two dollars ($2.00), or the equivalent of one roll of five cent ($0.05) coins

We reserve the right to use our discretion for accepting Canadian coin, as outlined by the Currency Act under “Legal Tender: section 8, subsection (2)”
