A currency converter with three rates where they differ: the market rate, the official rate of the central bank and, where there is one, the unofficial rate with Pro (for Cuba by elTOQUE, for Argentina the blue dollar, for Algeria the Square Port-Saïd). 67 central banks, from the ECB to the Bank of Russia, the National Bank of Ukraine, the Central Bank of Türkiye and the Bank of Algeria. See the rates side by side with the gap in percent, compare them on one chart, and get an alert when the gap grows.
