Currency conversion
FBS accounts are held in USD, so deposits in baht, ringgit or rupiah are converted. Indonesian bank deposits use a fixed 10,000 IDR per USD, which is simple but can be worse or better than the market rate depending on the day. For other currencies, compare the rate shown at checkout with your bank’s rate before you confirm a large deposit.
