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 JPY you end up with, not just the headline rate, and check for fixed fees.
USD to JPY formula
JPY amount = USD amount × 157.67.
USD amount = JPY amount ÷ 157.67.
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?
