The fallback rate is only used if the live rate request fails.
02 /How to use this lookup
This page targets one RMB, CNY or yuan search phrase, but it does not freeze an exchange-rate answer. Use the main currency converter for the current estimate, then read the result label for the rate source and rate date.
For Chinese marketplace prices, enter the number shown after RMB, CNY, yuan, CN¥ or the yuan symbol. For final purchase cost, leave room for card-network rates, payment-app spread, bank fees, shipping, tax and customs charges.
03 /Exchange-rate context
RMB, CNY and yuan usually refer to the same money amount in everyday shopping, but they appear in different places: CNY in exchange-rate data, RMB in English-language price labels, and yuan as the price unit. The RMB, CNY and yuan guide explains how to read those labels before converting.
The live converter fetches the latest available market-rate data when the browser can reach the currency API. If that request fails, the result clearly switches to a bundled fallback snapshot so the tool remains usable without pretending the fallback is current.
