Precio del Dólar Canadiense en México: CAD to MXN Today

If you’re watching the Canadian dollar from Mexico—or sending money north—you’ve probably noticed the CAD/MXN rate doesn’t sit still. It shifts daily based on interest rate decisions in Ottawa and Mexico City, commodity flows, and broader currency market sentiment. Here’s what the numbers look like right now, where to find the best rates, and what to watch before you convert.

1 CAD to MXN: 12.66 · 100 CAD to MXN: 1,266.00 · Today’s Range: 12.67 – 12.69 · Market Mid Rate: 12.6808 · 1000 CAD to MXN: 12,660.00

Multiple sources track CAD/MXN rates throughout the trading day, with the table below showing current figures from key providers.

How much is $100 Canadian dollars in Mexican pesos?

At the current mid-market rate of roughly 12.66 MXN per CAD, $100 Canadian converts to about 1,268 MXN. That’s the rate you’d get on mid-market converters like Wise—the kind of rate banks quote to each other before adding their margins.

Remittance platforms like Wise MX typically offer rates very close to mid-market, sometimes hovering around 12.86 depending on timing. The difference from Wise’s Spanish-language converter (12.66) reflects minor intraday variation and data latency.

What you actually receive depends on your provider. Banks like BBVA add their own spread on top, which is why BBVA’s published rate for CAD sits at 14.36 MXN per CAD—about 13% above the mid-market benchmark.

Live rate from Wise

Wise’s converter, which updates in real time, showed 1 CAD = 12.71 MXN on April 21, 2026. The platform transparently displays its small flat fee rather than hiding it in the exchange rate, making it easier to compare true costs.

Remitly comparison

Remitly’s rates track close to mid-market with a small transfer fee. For $100 CAD, expect roughly 1,265–1,270 MXN after fees, depending on when you send. Unlike bank tellers, digital platforms update continuously throughout the trading day.

What is the current 1 CAD to MXN exchange rate?

The mid-market rate for 1 CAD to MXN stands at approximately 12.66–12.68 MXN as of April 21, 2026, according to Wise. This is the rate banks use when trading currencies between themselves—it’s the most accurate benchmark for what’s actually happening in the market.

XE mid-market rate

XE, which BBVA uses as its currency converter source, showed 12.91453 MXN per CAD at 15:07 UTC on April 21. The discrepancy between XE’s rate and Wise’s reflects the roughly 20-minute window of market movement—currency rates shift continuously.

Investing.com range

Financial platform Investing.com recorded the CAD/MXN daily range as 12.6700 (low) to 12.6905 (high) on the same date. That tight 0.02-point spread suggests a relatively stable trading day, with the Canadian dollar holding within a narrow band against the peso.

How much is $1000 Canadian dollars in Mexican pesos?

At the mid-market rate, $1,000 CAD converts to approximately 12,685.70 MXN, according to Wise MX. At BBVA’s retail rate of 14.36 MXN per CAD, that same thousand Canadian dollars would yield 14,360 MXN—but you’d be converting through BBVA’s spread, not the open market.

Wise table values

Wise’s conversion table shows 1 CAD = 12.71 MXN for standard transactions. Multiplying through: 1,000 CAD × 12.71 = 12,710 MXN. Slight variations (12.86 on the MX portal versus 12.66 on the Spanish portal) reflect when each data snapshot was taken.

Historical context

The CAD/MXN pair has traded in a roughly 12.6–12.9 range across recent months, driven by fluctuations in oil prices (Canada is a major exporter) and monetary policy signals from both the Bank of Canada and Banxico. BBVA’s educational content notes that the rate shifts daily based on supply-demand dynamics, interest rates, and monetary policy decisions from both countries.

What is the price of the Canadian dollar at BBVA today?

BBVA México’s educational portal lists the current CAD rate at 14.36 MXN per dollar as of April 21, 2026, according to the bank’s own published materials. This is notably higher than the mid-market rate of roughly 12.66, reflecting BBVA’s retail margin.

BBVA cotización

BBVA.mx publishes its CAD rate in its “educación financiera” section aimed at helping customers understand currency conversions. However, BBVA México’s daily information portal does not list official buy/sell spreads for CAD/MXN specifically—the bank lacks a direct published spread for the Canadian dollar on its consumer-facing pages.

Compare to mid-market

The gap between BBVA’s 14.36 and the mid-market 12.66 represents roughly 1.70 MXN per CAD in additional cost. For a $1,000 CAD conversion, choosing BBVA over a mid-market converter could mean receiving approximately 1,700 MXN less. XE’s comparison data for BBVA Mexico confirms no specific CAD/MXN rate is available through their aggregator, suggesting BBVA doesn’t publicly distribute this pair through standard channels.

Has the Canadian dollar gone up or down recently?

The CAD/MXN rate has remained within a relatively narrow band of 12.67–12.69 MXN per CAD on April 21, 2026, according to Investing.com. This suggests sideways movement rather than a clear directional trend over the short term.

Historical trends

Market mid-rates have clustered around 12.6–12.9 MXN across providers in recent weeks, per Wise. The Canadian dollar’s performance against the peso tracks closely with broader commodity market sentiment, since Canada is a major oil and mineral exporter. When oil prices rise, the loonie tends to strengthen against most currencies, including the Mexican peso.

2021-2022 rates

Prior to 2023, CAD/MXN traded in a different range as post-pandemic monetary policy diverged between Canada and Mexico. The Bank of Canada’s aggressive rate hiking cycle supported CAD strength through 2022, while Banxico’s own tightening path kept MXN competitive. Recent months show the pair settling into the 12.6–12.9 range as both central banks approach rate decisions more cautiously.

Al día de hoy, el dólar canadiense está en 14.36 pesos mexicanos.

That’s what BBVA México’s educational content states directly, as published on its portal. The bank’s own materials acknowledge this figure as the current rate.

El rango en la cotización CAD MXN hoy es de 12,6700 a 12,6905.

Investing.com’s daily analysis pins the intraday range precisely, giving travelers and remitters a realistic window for same-day conversions.

For anyone converting CAD to MXN right now, the choice of provider matters more than timing. The mid-market rate sits around 12.66–12.68, but BBVA’s retail rate of 14.36 means you’ll receive roughly 1,700 MXN less per $1,000 CAD if you walk into a branch. Digital platforms like Wise close that gap significantly. The practical move: check the mid-market benchmark first, then measure any provider against it. For Canadian expats in Mexico receiving remittances, the current range is workable—just don’t assume bank posted rates are competitive without checking.
