What is the JPY/KES exchange rate today?

1 Japanese Yen buys 0.81065 Kenyan Shilling, the mid-market rate from Twelve Data, as of Aug 12, 2026, 8:56 PM 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 JPY/KES 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 ¥1,000 at 0.81065 and you’d receive KES 810.65. A provider adding a 2% margin would give about KES 794.44 — roughly KES 16.21 less. Compare any quote against the mid-market rate to see the true cost.
