The formula
How to convert AUD to CAD
To convert Australian Dollars to Canadian Dollars, multiply the amount by the current exchange rate. On 11 August 2026 that rate is 0.983453, so:
CAD = AUD × 0.983453
Going the other way, divide instead of multiply — or multiply by 1.0168, which is the same thing: one Canadian Dollar buys 1.0168 Australian Dollars.
The converter at the top of this page does both directions and updates as you type. Every result is recalculated on the server as well, so the number you see is the number that gets stored.
About the Australian Dollar and the Canadian Dollar
The Australian Dollar (AUD, symbol A$) is the currency of Australia. The Canadian Dollar (CAD, symbol C$) is the currency of Canada.
The two are quoted against each other constantly, so the rate moves throughout the trading day. The figures here are mid-market reference rates pulled from a public daily feed; they are the rate you will see quoted in the news, not the rate a retail exchange will hand you over the counter.
Worked AUD to CAD examples
A price tag. Something marked A$50 comes to 49.1726 CAD. Round to 49 CAD for a quick mental check while you are standing in the shop.
A monthly salary. A$3,000 a month is 2950.36 CAD — useful when you are comparing a job offer across the two markets. Bear in mind the rate moves, so a figure agreed today will not be the figure paid out in six months.
Going the other way. If you are holding C$1,000 and want to know what it buys in Australian Dollars, that is 1016.83 AUD. The converter handles both directions — use the swap button between the two fields.
Watch the margin. At a bureau charging 3%, your A$500 would fetch roughly 476.97 CAD instead of 491.73 CAD. That gap is what the mid-market rate on this page lets you spot.

No. This is the mid-market reference rate — the midpoint between what buyers and sellers are quoting. Banks, card issuers and exchange bureaus add a margin on top, so expect to receive somewhat less than the figure shown here. Use it as a benchmark to judge whether an offer is fair.
