What is the CAD/ZAR exchange rate today?

1 Canadian Dollar buys 11.6684 South African Rand, the mid-market rate from Twelve Data, as of Oct 7, 2026, 5:58 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/ZAR 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 11.6684 and you’d receive ZAR 11,668.39. A provider adding a 2% margin would give about ZAR 11,435.02 — roughly ZAR 233.37 less. Compare any quote against the mid-market rate to see the true cost.

How has CAD/ZAR moved recently?

Over the last 64 trading days, CAD/ZAR ranged from 11.4815 to 11.9621, averaging 11.6491. Each point is a daily close; weekends and holidays have no published fix, so the line skips them.
