What is the CAD/USD exchange rate today?

1 Canadian Dollar buys 0.716918 US Dollar, the mid-market rate from Twelve Data, as of Aug 13, 2026, 2:49 AM UTC. The mid-market rate is the midpoint between the buy and sell prices banks trade at — the fair reference rate, not the price you’ll be charged.

How often does the CAD/USD rate update?

The live rate refreshes about once a minute, and every reading is stamped with its own UTC time so you always know how fresh it is. Past daily points are immutable — once a day closes, its rate never changes.

Why is this different from my bank’s rate?

The rate here is mid-market; banks and apps quote a slightly worse rate and keep the difference as their margin. For example, change CA$1,000.00 at 0.716918 and you’d receive $716.92. A provider adding a 2% margin would give about $702.58 — roughly $14.34 less. Compare any quote against the mid-market rate to see the true cost.

How has CAD/USD moved recently?

Over the last 64 trading days, CAD/USD ranged from 0.702248 to 0.727727, averaging 0.713454. Each point is a daily close; weekends and holidays have no published fix, so the line skips them.
