About ClockFX

ClockFX is an independent, editorially-run reference site for two of the most-asked questions on the internet: what time is it? and what is this currency worth? We combine a free world time clock, a 40+ currency converter, live forex rates, cryptocurrency prices, and an unbiased money-transfer comparison into one fast, ad-supported tool.

Our Mission

To deliver the cleanest, fastest, most accurate world-time and currency reference on the open web, available to anyone without signup, paywall, or tracking — and to fund that with reasonable, clearly-labelled advertising.

Editorial Standards

Every page on ClockFX is written by the editorial team, fact-checked against primary sources, and reviewed quarterly for accuracy. We follow these principles:

• Primary sources only. Time data comes from the IANA tz database. FX rates come from public interbank feeds. Crypto prices come from CoinGecko's public API.
• Transparent rate methodology. Every rate displayed is the mid-market reference, never a marked-up retail rate. We disclose the source on every page.
• No undisclosed affiliate links. We do not currently take commissions from money-transfer providers. If that changes, every relevant page will carry a clear disclosure.
• Clearly labelled ads. Every ad slot carries an "Advertisement" label and is visually distinct from editorial content.
• Quarterly review. All cornerstone pages (currency, forex, money transfer, time zones) are reviewed and updated at least every 90 days.

The Editorial Team

ClockFX is produced by a small editorial team based in the UK and Singapore, with contributors covering timekeeping, foreign exchange, and digital currency. Editorial inquiries: editorial@clockfx.net.

Data Sources

• Time zones: IANA tz database, evaluated client-side via the browser's Intl API. This is the same dataset used by every major operating system.
• Currency rates: Aggregated public mid-market feeds from ExchangeRate-API and equivalent providers. Rates are refreshed every few minutes during global trading hours; pages cache the last fetched rate for instant subsequent lookups.
• Cryptocurrency prices: CoinGecko public market-data API.
• Daylight saving rules: Embedded in the IANA tz database; updated automatically as governments amend their DST laws.
• Forex market hours: Computed from the published trading hours of the Sydney, Tokyo, London, and New York sessions.
