What is the USD/CAD exchange rate today?

1 US Dollar buys 1.39393 Canadian Dollar, the mid-market rate from Twelve Data, as of Aug 12, 2026, 8:50 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 USD/CAD 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 1.39393 and you’d receive CA$1,393.93. A provider adding a 2% margin would give about CA$1,366.05 — roughly CA$27.88 less. Compare any quote against the mid-market rate to see the true cost.

How has USD/CAD moved recently?

Over the last 64 trading days, USD/CAD ranged from 1.37414 to 1.424, averaging 1.40179. Each point is a daily close; weekends and holidays have no published fix, so the line skips them.
