Let's look at some practical information, ideas and tips to help you make sure you can get the most from your money when you convert Bulgarian Lev to Swiss Franc, to send a payment, for a trip overseas, when shopping online or to hold a balance in Swiss Franc.
You can convert Bulgarian Lev to Swiss Franc either in a physical location or online. If you choose to exchange money at a currency exchange store, bank or at the airport, you'll be given your Swiss Franc in cash. Or, you can choose to convert digitally, to send a payment overseas for example.
If you're exchanging money in a physical location you'll usually need to take the following steps:
Exchanging your money digitally is often easier. As an example, here's how to send a payment overseas:
Because banks, currency exchange offices and international payment services all set their own exchange rates, you'll need to shop around a little to find the best BGN to CHF exchange rate for your specific transaction.
Get to know the BGN/CHF mid-market exchange rate using reputable currency conversion tools, so you'll be able to see how the market is trending. You can often set up rate alerts so the service you choose will send you a message when the BGN/CHF mid-market exchange rate hits your preferred level. Once you see a rate you like, act fast to complete your transaction before markets move again.
Another smart option is to open a multi-currency account which lets you hold a selection of major world currencies, often including Bulgarian Lev and Swiss Franc. This can be helpful if you transact internationally often, live overseas, receive payments from abroad, invest in diverse markets or even if you simply love to shop online with international retailers. Because you can hold a balance in the currency or currencies of your choice, there's no need to convert from one currency to another unnecessarily - you can wait until exchange rates are favorable to avoid losing out.
You'll be able to exchange Swiss Franc to Bulgarian Lev in the same way as you'd exchange Bulgarian Lev to Swiss Franc. If you have Swiss Franc in your pocket in cash, you can take them along to a currency exchange service and ask if they'll buy back in exchange for Swiss Franc. Be aware that the exchange rate might not be great - so coming back from a trip with as little foreign cash as possible is a smart plan.
On the other hand, if you hold Bulgarian Lev in a bank or specialist provider account, you'll be able to take advantage of online currency exchange services which can often offer fast, efficient and good value conversion which uses a better rate than a bank would.
You can exchange currencies in person at a currency exchange store, bank or airport, or use an online service instead. It's helpful to know that in person currency exchange options can offer a pretty poor deal overall, as exchange rates commonly include a markup - an extra fee. If you're exchanging somewhere with little local competition - like at an airport or hotel, for example - the chances are that the rate you get will be even worse.
A good alternative is to open a multi-currency account which lets you hold and exchange currencies digitally - and if you pick an account which also offers a linked debit card, you can make ATM withdrawals at home and abroad whenever you need cash. Digital specialist services can often offer a better exchange rate with lower overall costs compared to using your bank or exchanging cash in person - plus they're intuitive to use and let you manage your money with just your phone.

The mid-market exchange rate is the rate that banks and currency exchange services get when they buy and sell currencies like Swiss Franc and Bulgarian Lev on wholesale markets. It's an important benchmark you can use to measure whether the exchange rate you're offered by a bank or exchange service is fair.
Usually banks and exchange services add a percentage margin - known as a markup - to the exchange rate they get themselves. But this markup can vary a lot, and in some cases pushes up the cost of currency exchange significantly. Learning about the mid-market rate and monitoring it can mean you get a better deal when you exchange currencies.
