Street FX rates for emerging markets

Daily street exchange rates for 16 active emerging-market currencies, and growing. Quoted against USDT, since 2022. The rate people actually pay, not the official one.

For remittance companies, OTC desks, brokers, fintechs and researchers who need the market rate where the official rate is managed, lagging or unavailable.

The index combines transaction-based market data with quotes from public market sources. Every series carries a confidence class and the number of sources behind it. See the methodology.

As of 2026-10-24 (UTC): 16 active currencies, with the 1-day delay of the free tier. Rates are fiat per 1 USDT, so a rising line means the currency is weakening.

Sources — independent market sources behind the latest day (shown from two on). high / medium / limited — confidence class: limited means fewer sources or fewer data points, or a latest day that is a few days old, so the rate is noisier and can have gaps; outlier marks a day that deviates from its neighbours (kept, but excluded from averages and changes). Updated — when the latest day of the currency was. Hourly — the index by UTC hour for the day shown, with the 1-day delay of the free tier; Pro keys get hourly rates up to the current hour (updated daily, hourly granularity). All currencies in detail.
