Euros EUR / CHF, at the counter.
We change your euros into Swiss francs — and your francs into euros — Helvetica Exchange, Rue Pierre-Fatio 19, 1204 Geneva (Rive district) — the posted rate is the counter rate, no separate commission. Monday–Friday 08:30–18:30, Saturday 09:00–17:00. Reserve and your rate is held for 3 hours during opening hours; ID from the LBA thresholds. Cross-border workers and shops: denominations prepared in advance on simple reservation.
Geneva lives with the euro at its doorstep. Every day thousands of frontaliers cross from Annemasse, Ferney-Voltaire or Saint-Julien — salaries paid in francs and spent in euros, or the reverse — joined by city shopkeepers converting their euro takings without surrendering a commission. For these regulars, rhythm matters more than any single visit: our tiers reward regularity, a reservation freezes a good market moment between noon and closing time, and your denominations are counted and waiting when payday demands a two-minute stop. A quiet mechanism worth knowing: EUR/CHF moves little but moves always — on a salary converted monthly, tenths of a centime add up. Watch our morning Telegram channel, reserve when the rate pleases you, and come at the quiet hour: early afternoon, the counter breathes.

I convert my salary every month — is there an advantage?
Yes. Regularity counts: cumulative amounts lift you through the tiers, and the private lounge can agree a tailored arrangement for substantial monthly conversions — simply ask at the counter.
