About the South African Rand to Canadian Dollar rate

This page converts the South African Rand (ZAR) into the Canadian Dollar (CAD) 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.

Every figure on this page is a mid-market reading of ZAR/CAD, 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.

Is 0.08587 the rate my bank will give me?

No. 0.08587 is the mid-market rate for ZAR to CAD, 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 ZAR to CAD exchange rate?

One ZAR is worth 0.08587 CAD, and one CAD is worth 11.6449 ZAR, 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 CAD back to ZAR?

Use the inverse rate: one CAD is worth 11.6449 ZAR, so multiply your Canadian Dollar 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 ZAR to CAD without internet?

Yes, in the Android app. It stores the last synced ZAR to CAD 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 ZAR to CAD rate keep changing?

The South African Rand and the Canadian Dollar 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 ZAR to CAD offline

The Android app keeps the last synced rates on your phone, so ZAR to CAD 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 ZAR/CAD crosses a level you set.
