What you'll actually receive after fees
On supplier payments and trade with China, after a typical 1–4% provider margin, ¥1,000 CNY is worth roughly $141.12–$145.53 USD in practice — so compare the final amount, not just the mid-market rate.
What moves the CNY/USD rate
The Chinese yuan is managed by the People's Bank of China, which sets a daily reference rate and lets the yuan move within a narrow band — so it is not a free float. China's huge export trade, its FX reserves and US-China trade tensions are the main drivers. The other way round, $1 USD buys about ¥6.80 CNY today.
