About the West African CFA Franc to Kenyan Shilling rate

This page converts the West African CFA Franc (XOF) into the Kenyan Shilling (KES) at the mid-market rate. Both currencies trade continuously on the foreign exchange market, and the ratio between them moves with interest rates, inflation and the trade flows between their economies. The rate shown here is the neutral reference each bank, card network and bureau de change then builds its own price on top of.

The West African CFA Franc is pegged to the euro at 655.957 XOF per EUR, so XOF/KES moves exactly as EUR/KES does: any change in this rate is the Kenyan Shilling moving against the euro.

Every figure on this page is a mid-market reading of XOF/KES, dated above. It says where the pair stood at that time, not where it is heading: no rate here is a forecast, a quote, or an offer to exchange.

XOF to KES: common questions

How much is 100 XOF in KES?

100 XOF converts to 22.09 KES at the mid-market rate shown on this page, where one XOF is worth 0.22086 KES. The pair moves through the day, so check the date under the rate before you rely on the figure.

Is 0.22086 the rate my bank will give me?

No. 0.22086 is the mid-market rate for XOF to KES, the midpoint between the buy and sell price and the rate before anyone adds a margin. A bank, a card network or a bureau de change quotes a lower rate on this pair and may charge a fee on top, so expect to receive less than the converted figure shown here.

What is the XOF to KES exchange rate?

One XOF is worth 0.22086 KES, and one KES is worth 4.5278 XOF, at the time shown under the rate. The figure comes from ExchangeRate-API: it is a mid-market reading rather than a live trading price, and every figure on this page, the converter included, uses it.

How do I convert KES back to XOF?

Use the inverse rate: one KES is worth 4.5278 XOF, so multiply your Kenyan Shilling amount by that figure. You can also swap the two currencies in the converter above and the table recalculates in the other direction.

Can I convert XOF to KES without internet?

Yes, in the Android app. It stores the last synced XOF to KES rate on the device and keeps converting with no connection, then updates as soon as you are online again. This website needs a connection, because it fetches the rate when the page loads.

Why does the XOF to KES rate keep changing?

The West African CFA Franc and the Kenyan Shilling are priced against each other continuously on the currency market. Interest rates, inflation, trade flows and political news all move the pair, which is why the rate you saw in the morning is rarely the rate you see at night.

Convert XOF to KES offline

The Android app keeps the last synced rates on your phone, so XOF to KES still converts with no connection: on a plane, in a metro, or abroad without a data plan. It also converts one source currency into several targets on one screen, charts the history of every pair, and can send you a push notification when XOF/KES crosses a level you set.
