How we collect and show exchange rates

Where TheMoney.ge data comes from, how often it is updated and what we do when a bank has not sent a new rate.

Data sources

We collect buy and sell rates automatically from the banks' own public sources: their official websites and public rate pages. The official rate comes from the regulator: National Bank of Georgia.

How often rates are updated

Bank rates are collected several times a day. Each rate shows the time it was received. The official rate is updated after the regulator publishes it.

Best rate

The best buy rate is the highest rate at which a bank buys the currency; the best sell rate is the lowest rate at which a bank sells it. Only fresh quotes take part in the comparison.

When a bank has not updated its rate

If a bank has not sent new data for a long time, its rate is left out of the comparison, and the bank's page says that there are no fresh quotes yet.

Tomorrow's official rate

When the regulator publishes the official rate for the next day in advance, we show it separately, marked “Tomorrow”, with the date it takes effect. At local midnight it becomes today's rate.

History and converter

The monthly rate archive is built from the same collected data. The converter calculates amounts at the official rate.

Errors and limits

The data is for reference only and is not financial advice. Check the rate with the bank before exchanging: it can change during the day. If you notice an error, write to us and we will check the data.
