When to use USDCNY

USD to CNY tracks the People's Bank of China's daily midpoint fix, set each morning Beijing time, around which the onshore yuan is allowed to trade in a ±2 % band. The offshore yuan (CNH, traded mostly in Hong Kong) trades more freely and can diverge from CNY by 50–150 bps in volatile periods. The rate shown is the ECB's reference for CNY. For trade settlement, exporters to China increasingly invoice directly in yuan to avoid the dollar leg entirely; the Cross-Border Interbank Payment System (CIPS) handles these flows.

What is 1 CNY in USD?

Where do these rates come from?
The European Central Bank publishes daily reference rates around 16:00 CET. Convertitive consumes them through the Frankfurter open data service and refreshes its cache every hour.
How often is the rate updated?
Up to once per hour, and only when the ECB itself has issued a new value. Over weekends and holidays the displayed rate stays at the previous business day's close.
Why isn't this the rate my bank quotes?
Mid-market rates are a benchmark; retail banks and card networks add a spread on every conversion to cover their costs and margin. Expect that spread to be 1–3 % on most card transactions and 0.4–0.8 % at large brokers.
Can I use this for accounting or invoicing?
Use it as a reference. For official accounting, most jurisdictions require a documented rate from a central bank or your tax authority (which often publish their own daily values).
What's a 'mid-market' rate?
The midpoint between the buying and selling prices that wholesale banks quote each other. It's the closest thing to a 'real' rate for an individual to compare against.
