About the Zambian Kwacha to South African Rand rate
This page converts the Zambian Kwacha (ZMW) into the South African Rand (ZAR) 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 ZMW/ZAR, 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.

How much is 100 ZMW in ZAR?
100 ZMW converts to 80.70 ZAR at the mid-market rate shown on this page, where one ZMW is worth 0.80700 ZAR. The pair moves through the day, so check the date under the rate before you rely on the figure.
Is 0.80700 the rate my bank will give me?
No. 0.80700 is the mid-market rate for ZMW to ZAR, 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 ZMW to ZAR exchange rate?
One ZMW is worth 0.80700 ZAR, and one ZAR is worth 1.2392 ZMW, 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 ZAR back to ZMW?
Use the inverse rate: one ZAR is worth 1.2392 ZMW, so multiply your South African Rand 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 ZMW to ZAR without internet?
Yes, in the Android app. It stores the last synced ZMW to ZAR 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 ZMW to ZAR rate keep changing?
The Zambian Kwacha and the South African Rand 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 ZMW to ZAR offline
The Android app keeps the last synced rates on your phone, so ZMW to ZAR 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 ZMW/ZAR crosses a level you set.
