For your Switzerland trip, the CHF Converter app is more practical than the web calculator: the same ECB rate also works offline, plus a camera scanner for price tags and a history of all your past conversions.
The ECB reference rate: what it is and why it matters
The European Central Bank publishes a set of official reference rates every working day at around 16:00 CET. These rates represent the mid-market rate — the midpoint between buying and selling prices — and are widely used as the benchmark for currency markets. CHF Converter uses these ECB rates, updated once per day, so the figure you see is the fair market rate rather than a bank's marked-up selling rate.
For the CHF/EUR pair in mid-2026, the ECB rate sits around 1 CHF = 1.08 EUR. This means the Swiss franc is notably stronger than the euro. When you travel from the eurozone to Switzerland, your euros buy fewer francs than you might expect if you mentally treat them as close to equal.
Worked examples at this rate (mid-2026 ballpark — always check the live ECB rate in the app):
- 10 CHF ≈ 10.80 EUR
- 50 CHF ≈ 54.00 EUR
- 100 CHF ≈ 108.00 EUR
- 500 CHF ≈ 540.00 EUR
EUR to CHF: the reverse conversion
If you are spending euros and want to know the CHF cost, flip the calculation. At 1 CHF ≈ 1.08 EUR, one euro buys approximately 0.92 CHF. Practical examples:
- 100 EUR ≈ 92 CHF
- 200 EUR ≈ 185 CHF
- 500 EUR ≈ 463 CHF
This direction matters if you are budgeting a trip to Switzerland. A hotel room priced at 300 CHF costs you roughly 324 EUR at the ECB mid-rate — though any bank or exchange desk will add a spread on top of that mid-rate.
To quickly check both directions, open CHF Converter, tap the EUR row, and type your amount. The app always shows the CHF result. For the reverse, note that 1 EUR ≈ 0.92 CHF and multiply accordingly, or use the keypad in reverse.
How to use CHF Converter for CHF to EUR calculations
CHF Converter is designed around a single destination currency — the Swiss franc. To find how many CHF a euro amount represents, select EUR as your source currency, type the amount, and read the CHF result. The rate shown is always sourced from the ECB and was last fetched at the daily update.
If you need the euro value of a CHF price you see in a Swiss shop, divide the CHF amount by the rate shown (or note that 1 CHF ≈ 1.08 EUR as a quick mental check). The guide on where to exchange money in Switzerland covers how this mid-rate compares to what banks and exchange offices offer. For dollar conversions, see the USD to CHF guide.

Is the CHF to EUR rate in the app the official rate?
Yes. CHF Converter uses the European Central Bank reference rate, published each working day at around 16:00 CET. This is the mid-market rate, not a bank's commercial rate.
Why is 1 CHF worth more than 1 EUR?
The Swiss franc has historically been a strong currency due to Switzerland's economic stability, low inflation, and the Swiss National Bank's policy. In mid-2026, 1 CHF buys roughly 1.08 EUR.
