FXMap is a free interactive tool that visualizes reference exchange rates on a world map. You can click any country to see its currency, compare up to 3 currencies side-by-side, and explore purchasing power indexes like the Big Mac Index, Latte Index, and more. Rates are for informational purposes only and are not transaction quotes.

How often are exchange rates updated?

Reference exchange rates refresh approximately every hour from the European Central Bank (ECB) and other open data APIs. The data covers 161 fiat currencies, major cryptocurrencies, and precious metals. See /methodology for details on data sources, update cadence, and limitations.

What are purchasing power indexes?

Purchasing power indexes compare the real cost of everyday items across countries. FXMap tracks six indexes: Big Mac, Latte, Taxi Ride, Coca-Cola, Movie Ticket, and Gasoline. These show what your money actually buys in different countries, beyond just the exchange rate.

How many currencies does FXMap cover?

FXMap covers 161 fiat currencies from 180+ countries, plus major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and others. You can compare any currency against any other using reference rates and 30-day trend charts.

Can I compare currencies side by side?

Yes. Select a base currency, then use the comparison feature to add up to 3 currencies. You'll see reference exchange rates, 30-day sparkline trends, percentage changes (1-day, 7-day, 30-day), and purchasing power comparisons across all six indexes.
