How the Currency Exchange Calculator works
Where the rates come from, how a conversion is computed, and what the numbers do and do not promise.
Formula
rate(X → Y) = value(X) / value(Y)
amount_Y = amount_X × rate(X → Y)
basket = Σ qty_i × value(i) shown in Divine, Exalted (÷ value(exalted)) and Chaos (÷ value(chaos))
Because every currency is expressed in one unit, the conversion table is transitive: Exalted → Chaos → Divine gives the same result as Exalted → Divine directly, up to rounding.
Worked example
If one Exalted Orb is worth 0.005 Divine and one Chaos Orb 0.02 Divine, then 1 Divine = 200 Exalted = 50 Chaos, and 10 Chaos = 10 × 0.02 / 0.005 = 40 Exalted. A tab with 400 Exalted and 50 Chaos is 2 + 1 = 3 Divine.
Source and freshness
- Rates are published by poe.ninja, which aggregates the official currency exchange listings per league; the "price in Divine" is their primary value for each currency.
- Our site fetches that feed through a small cache that keeps each league's rates for 10 minutes, so the page never hammers their API; the browser keeps its own copy for another 10 minutes. The age of the rates is shown under the converter.
- All conversions happen in your browser; the league and basket are stored only in the page link.
Limits
- Listing ratios are a middle price. Instant buys cost more, instant sells give less, and large volumes move the market.
- Only currencies with enough volume appear; hardcore leagues can have very few.
- Rates are not a recommendation to trade; poe.ninja is not affiliated with this site.
