USD to XAF: US dollars to CFA francs
XAF is the currency code for the Central African CFA franc used in Cameroon and five other CEMAC countries. CFA.CASH shows its live USD to XAF customer rate in the calculator on the home page. CFA.CASH is an AI-powered platform, with value designed to move on stablecoin (crypto) rails before payout in XAF.
What is XAF?
The Central African CFA franc (XAF) is issued by the BEAC and used by the six CEMAC countries: Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Republic of the Congo, Equatorial Guinea and Gabon. It is pegged to the euro at 1 EUR = 655.957 XAF.
Why the USD to XAF rate moves
Because XAF is pegged to the euro, the USD to XAF exchange rate changes as the US dollar moves against the euro. That is why the value of 1 USD in XAF can change even though the XAF-to-euro peg remains fixed.
XAF and XOF
The West African CFA franc (XOF) is a separate currency from the Central African CFA franc (XAF). Both have the same euro peg, but Cameroon uses XAF.
Where to see our rate
The live CFA.CASH customer rate is shown in the calculator on the home page as 1 USD = X XAF, together with the fee and the exact francs your recipient would receive. We do not list a fixed USD to XAF rate here because our AI-powered rate service refreshes it. CFA.CASH is operating partially. Full automation at full launch.
Mid-market rate vs customer rate
USD to XAF rates shown by search engines are generally reference or mid-market rates. The amount a recipient receives depends on the provider’s customer rate and fee, so compare the final amount in XAF rather than the exchange rate alone.
