Why the ZAR to UGX rate changes
The South African Rand to Ugandan Shilling 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 ZAR to UGX 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 UGX amount shown before you pay is the amount that is delivered. Fees are shown separately, so you can compare the total cost of sending ZAR to UGX against any other provider on the same basis.
