The rate shown is a mid-market reference rate, the midpoint between buying and selling prices. Banks, money changers and card networks add a margin, so the rate you actually receive is usually a little worse. Compare the total USD you end up with, not just the headline rate, and check for fixed fees.
JPY to USD formula
USD amount = JPY amount × 0.006342.
JPY amount = USD amount ÷ 0.006342.
Rates are cross-calculated through the US dollar from European Central Bank reference rates, so the result is consistent in both directions.

- How often are the rates updated?
- The European Central Bank publishes reference rates once each working day, around 16:00 CET. Weekends and holidays show the previous working day's rates. These are reference rates, not live trading quotes, so they are not suitable for trading or for locking in a large transfer.
