The mid-market rate (also called the interbank rate or real exchange rate) is the midpoint between buy and sell prices in global currency markets. Banks and traditional transfer services add a markup of 2–4% on top of this rate — meaning on a CAD 10,000 transfer, you could lose CAD 200–400 to hidden exchange rate fees.
