Why is the USD to GHS rate here different from Google's?
Google quotes the mid-market rate — the midpoint of the interbank market, which is a reference number rather than a rate you can transact at. Monierate leads with the parallel market rate for USD/GHS: what desks and exchanges are actually quoting, aggregated across the platforms we track. The two diverge whenever official and street pricing diverge.
How often does the USD to GHS rate update?
Continuously. Parallel market rates are rebuilt from the quotes the platforms we track publish, and a quote that stops moving for a day is dropped rather than shown as current. This page was built from data stamped Sep 17, 2026, 4:20 PM UTC.
Is this USD rate for fiat dollars or stablecoins?
It can be either. Some providers quote physical or bank-held US Dollars, while others settle in digital dollars — stablecoins such as USDT or USDC — and quote that as a USD rate. Monierate lists both under USD/GHS, so check which one the provider actually holds before you trade. Providers may charge additional swap, network or transfer fees in their own app or API that are not included in the rate shown, so these figures are for information purposes only.
