BNB to ETH

BNB to Ethereum at a glance

This page tracks the exchange rate between BNB (BNB) and Ethereum (ETH) and sets it next to what real providers charge to convert one into the other. On October 30, 2026, 1 BNB equals 0.312713 ETH, while 1 ETH is worth 3.1978 BNB.

The rate shown above is the mid-market rate. It is calculated as the middle of the price at which large banks buy BNB and the price at which they sell it. Think of it as the cleanest reference you can get: it contains no profit margin and no fees, so you rarely get it as a private customer.

What you actually receive depends on two things: a markup hidden in the exchange rate and the fee you see on the order screen. In the sections below we explain how those costs work, show how they add up on a real amount and list practical steps to keep more of your money when you change BNB into ETH.

Buying or selling crypto: BNB to ETH

With crypto, the price you pay depends heavily on where you trade. On a trading platform, you pay the difference between bid and ask, on top of a maker or taker fee. Easy buy buttons in apps usually quote a single price that has the cost baked in.

When you move crypto to or from your own wallet, there is a separate network charge. It is often a fixed amount regardless of the size of the transfer, which makes small withdrawals relatively expensive. Double-check the network before you send: mistakes here are rarely reversible.

The price of a crypto asset can swing hard in a short time. A displayed price may be fixed only for a few seconds, and on large orders the execution price can slip. Use the rate here as a guide, not as a binding quote.

Custody is another point to consider. If you leave crypto on a platform, the platform controls it, while in your own wallet you are fully responsible for the keys. Check that a platform is registered or licensed with a financial regulator where you live.

Exchange rate markup and fees on BNB/ETH

Nearly every bank and app do not convert at the rate of 0.312713 as such. They offer a rate that is a little less favourable and pocket the gap. People call this the spread. A markup of 2%, for example, means that for every 100 BNB you convert, about 2 BNB worth disappears before the money arrives.

Besides the hidden margin, a lot of services charge an explicit fee. It may be a flat charge per payment, a percentage of the amount or both at once. For transfers sent through the banking network other banks along the route may take their own cut, which shrinks the amount that finally arrives.

Take a close look at offers that say "no fees" or "0% commission". Free usually means the price is built into the exchange rate. The only fair way to compare is how much ETH the recipient ends up with for an identical BNB amount, and that is the figure our table ranks on.

Before you send: security and large amounts

Check the provider’s licence first. Look for authorisation from the FCA in the UK or the financial regulator in your own country. Regulation includes rules on keeping your money apart from the company’s own and that offers protection if the company fails.

Double-check the recipient details before you confirm. An international payment is hard to reverse once it is sent. Be suspicious if someone urges you to pay quickly or suddenly changes bank details. Verify through a channel you trust.

Larger transfers often come with additional questions. Providers may ask for proof of where the money comes from, such as a payslip, sale agreement or bank statement. Some providers lower their margin on request for larger customers. A rate lock, where offered, removes uncertainty while the money is on its way.

How BNB/ETH moved over the past year

Compared with a year ago, the exchange rate has changed by +10.19%. In that period the top of the range was 0.366089 ETH per BNB, and the lowest was 0.259458. The current 0.312713 can be measured against those two levels.

The spread between the year’s extremes puts the movement into real terms. On a large conversion, the moment you choose can make a noticeable difference to what arrives, even when the fee stays the same.

Rates are pushed around by central bank policy, economic data and shifts in risk appetite. These figures describe the past and say nothing about what comes next. If timing matters to you, a rate alert is a calmer option than trying to predict the market.

Paying less when you change BNB into ETH

Compare the total cost, not the fee alone. A low headline fee proves nothing when the margin is high. The fairest figure to compare is how much ETH arrives for your BNB, which combines the markup and the fee.

When you pay by card abroad, you may be asked whether to pay in BNB or in the local currency. That option is known as dynamic currency conversion, or DCC. It tends to be among the most expensive ways to convert. Pick the local currency and the conversion follows your card’s own terms.

Watch the timing as well. Some providers widen their margin at weekends, when currency markets are closed. If you are not in a hurry, an alert tells you when the rate hits a level you are happy with. It takes the guesswork out, though there is no guarantee the rate will get there.

Finally, look at how you pay. Card payments often cost more than a bank transfer, while funding by bank transfer tends to keep costs down. Bundling smaller transfers also cuts the impact of fixed fees.

1.0000 BNB to ETH, step by step

Take an amount of 1.0000 BNB. Using the reference rate of 0.312713, you can work out the upper limit of what is possible on the ETH side. In practice nobody hands over that full amount, as costs are deducted somewhere in the process.

Across the 15 providers in our comparison, Crypto.com gave the best result: the recipient gets 0.3123 ETH after all costs. The gap between 0.3123 ETH and the theoretical maximum is what the conversion actually cost you.

Bear in mind that a different amount can produce a different winner. A flat fee hurts most when the amount is small, whereas a percentage margin grows along with the amount. Try your actual amount in the calculator above to see the ranking that applies to you.

About this comparison

Our starting point is the current mid-market rate. For each provider we apply its published fees and the margin it adds to the rate, which gives the amount the recipient receives. We do this for 15 providers, placed side by side.

The figures refresh every half hour, and the date on the page shows when the data was last updated. Providers confirm their own price at checkout, since markets keep moving.

GoldexPay is independent. Some of the links are affiliate links, which help fund our work. That never changes the ranking: providers are sorted purely by how much ETH the recipient gets.
