Formula Used

The calculator uses the following formula to calculate the amount you'll receive:

Amount Received = (Amount to Exchange × Exchange Rate) - (Amount to Exchange × Fee Percentage)

Where:

  • Amount to Exchange is the amount of money you want to convert
  • Exchange Rate is the current rate between the two currencies
  • Fee Percentage is the percentage fee charged by TD Canada Trust (typically 0.5% to 2%)

The calculator uses TD Canada Trust's published exchange rates and fee structure for accurate calculations.

Worked Example

Let's say you want to exchange $1,000 USD to CAD with the following details:

  • Amount to Exchange: $1,000 USD
  • Exchange Rate: 1 USD = 1.35 CAD
  • Fee Percentage: 1.5%

Using the formula:

Amount Received = (1000 × 1.35) - (1000 × 0.015)

= 1,350 - 15

= 1,335 CAD

So you would receive approximately 1,335 CAD after fees.
