A currency exchange is when you convert a currency to another. Usually each country has its own currency and if for example you’re buying an item with a different currency or traveling to a country with a different currency than you, this would require an exchange of currencies where you sell your currency and buy another (this would usually require a conversion fee) through a financial institution.
