One Russian Ruble (RUB) is worth about 0.2144 South African Rand (ZAR) at the current mid-market rate. Going the other way, one ZAR buys roughly 4.6647 RUB.
This is the mid-market rate — the midpoint between buy and sell prices on the wholesale market. Banks and payment providers add a margin on top, typically 0.5% to 3%, so the rate you are actually offered will be slightly worse. For small transfers the fixed fee usually costs more than the margin.
Getting the best rate
- Compare the total received, not the headline rate: a "0% commission" offer usually hides its margin in the exchange rate.
- Convert on weekdays. Spreads widen at weekends when the wholesale market is closed.
- For amounts above a few thousand, a specialist transfer service is normally 1-2% cheaper than a bank.
