FAQ
+What is today's USD to XOF rate?
The live USD to XOF reference rate published by the Central Bank of West African States (BCEAO) is shown above. It is the official rate, updated each business day.
+Where do the Burkina Faso CFA franc rates come from?
Directly from the Central Bank of West African States (BCEAO), the issuer of the West African CFA franc. We mirror the BCEAO official reference rates exactly, with no modification.
+Why does Burkina Faso use the same currency as other West African countries?
Burkina Faso is one of eight members of the WAEMU (UEMOA) bloc, which shares a single currency, the West African CFA franc (franc CFA, XOF), issued by the BCEAO. The franc CFA is pegged to the euro at a fixed parity, so the EUR/XOF rate stays constant while USD/XOF moves with the dollar.
