What is the USD/BRL exchange rate today?
1 US Dollar buys 4.98151 Brazilian Real, 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 USD/BRL 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 $1,000.00 at 4.98151 and you’d receive R$4,981.51. A provider adding a 2% margin would give about R$4,881.88 — roughly R$99.63 less. Compare any quote against the mid-market rate to see the true cost.
How has USD/BRL moved recently?
Over the last 64 trading days, USD/BRL ranged from 4.96859 to 5.22138, averaging 5.13022. Each point is a daily close; weekends and holidays have no published fix, so the line skips them.
