Description from store
Simple and comfortable currency converter for Chrome Browser.
It`s a pretty cool free extension which can be used when you need to calculate currency and to know the exchange rates. This will be useful for you in many situations, for example when you plan your trip or if you work with stock exchange or binary options, trade the forex market and etc.
As we know, because of constant currency trade exchange rates are changing throughout the week. This is the reason why currency, same as stocks and gold prices, go down or up. What does market price of a certain currency means? It`s how many, for example, U.S. dollars you need to pay for one Euro. But these numbers differ from the currency price you`ll get from your bank when exchanging. Here's how exchange rates work, and how to figure out whether the deal is profitable. The essence of currency converters is to display information about current market or bank exchange rates in real time. The calculated price will change accordingly with a change in the value of any compared currencies, which is possible due to synchronization with current exchange rates databases . The frequency of updating exchange rates used by a particular converter may vary.
Typically, this type of converter displays a price that doesn`t tend to be “buying/selling-oriented”, which is pretty useful for preparing financial plans and reports and evaluating the cost of goods or services. It can also be useful in invoicing or basic accounting.
It is worth noting that extension uses the BCE API. All the information updates daily around 16:00 CET, except the days TARGET company is closed. The reference rates information is based on the mandatory daily approval process between central banks throughout Europe (usually at 14:15 Central European Time).
Use “Alt + W” shortcut for Windows and “⌥ + W” for Mac OS to open extension. Keyboard shortcut combination can be easily edited.

- (2020-06-26) Julian León: BE VERY CAREFUL WITH THIS EXTENSION !!! I explain the reasons. Because this extension asks me for permissions like "Read and modify all the sites you visit". Why? I really see that this extension is not looking to get my data, because the extension is spam and you don't need those permissions to work. Really dangerous. Other reasons. This extension says it has 500,000 active users and very bad ratings. All users are not real and have been generated. They are completely fake users to trick you. It is clear that this extension is clearly spam and I am surprised that the CWS team has not seen and removed it for spam, it is completely ridiculous and dangerous. For these reasons, any user should be very careful with this type of extensions that only try to trick you into downloading it. There are more and more extensions in the Chrome Store that only search for one thing, your data history as a user, be very careful and do not download this extension, it is a waste of time and it is clearly a dangerous extension. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!
