Why the UGX to USD rate changes
The Ugandan Shilling to US Dollar exchange rate is not fixed. It moves with supply and demand for each currency, interest-rate decisions by the central banks that issue them, inflation, commodity prices and the general appetite for risk in global markets. Most emerging-market currencies are priced through the US dollar, so a strong or weak dollar day usually shows up in the UGX to USD rate too.
MigraPay refreshes this page every five minutes and quotes the live rate in the app at the moment you confirm a transfer. Because the rate is locked when you send, the USD amount shown before you pay is the amount that is delivered. Fees are shown separately, so you can compare the total cost of sending UGX to USD against any other provider on the same basis.
