Hello,

does T212 distinguish between buying and selling rates when converting between currency pairs such as EUR and USD?

For example: Regardless of the FX fee I don’t not get the same money when I convert EUR in USD and than I calculate it back to EUR value.

We get the interbank rates so it’s not the same either way. It confirms that on their help section of the website.
