How much is the Mexican peso worth in dollars today?
One Mexican peso is worth $0.0589 at the interbank rate, which means 1 US dollar buys about MX$16.96. That interbank number is the wholesale reference banks, businesses, and exchange houses use. When you convert pesos to dollars at a counter, you receive a little less; when you buy pesos with dollars, you pay a little more. That gap is the provider's margin.
Interbank rate vs. the counter rate you actually get
The difference between the wholesale rate and the counter rate has three layers:
- Interbank spot: the quote between banks with no margin. Only accessible for very large volumes.
- Sell rate at the bank: what the bank charges if you buy dollars. Usually 1-2% above the interbank rate.
- Buy rate at the bank: what the bank pays if you sell dollars for pesos. Usually 1-2% below the interbank rate.
The gap between buy and sell is the spread, and it is how the provider makes money. A typical spread runs 2-4% at banks and up to 6-8% at airport exchange kiosks.
What moves the peso against the dollar?
The Mexican peso is one of the most actively traded emerging-market currencies in the world. Its exchange rate responds to:
- Interest-rate decisions by Banxico versus the US Federal Reserve: if Banxico holds high and the Fed cuts, the peso tends to strengthen (it attracts foreign investment into Mexican debt).
- Remittances: about $60 billion USD a year flow from the US to Mexico, a structural source of demand for pesos.
- Oil prices: Mexico exports crude; higher oil tends to support the peso.
- Politics and trade: elections, reforms, and the USMCA agreement.
How to lose less when you convert pesos to dollars
- For remittances to Mexico: Wise, Remitly, and Western Union at or near the interbank rate usually beat traditional bank counters.
- For travel: a debit or credit card that charges the interbank rate with no foreign-transaction fee beats exchanging cash.
- For saving in dollars: a US-dollar account or a broker (USD ETF) rather than holding cash.
- Always avoid: airport and tourist-zone exchange kiosks (3-8% margin) and double conversions on cards.
