PokerStars’ exchange rates are calculated using the current mid-market exchange rate provided by Reuters, plus a margin of 1%. The rates are updated on a regular basis throughout the day.

PokerStars will waive this margin, as long as the funds are used to play the games, not for currency speculation or any other purpose. Effectively, this means that currency conversions performed in the PokerStars client will use the Reuters mid-market rate without any adjustments.  PokerStars will use Reuters’ mid-market rate without any adjustments for any deposits or cashouts that are performed in a supported account currency (US Dollars, Euro, British Pounds or Canadian Dollars).

For deposits and cashouts in other currencies, PokerStars will waive half of the 1% margin, making the effective margin 0.5%. Note that where PokerStars has reasonable grounds to suspect that currency conversion transactions are being made for purposes other than play, we reserve the right to retroactively apply the full 1% (one percent) margin to the exchange rate. PokerStars reserves the right to change the way exchange rates are calculated without notice.
