Dollar Card Update for Today: What's the Value on August 15th, 2020?
In the world of international finance, the Card Dollar has been a significant player in payments with debit and credit cards abroad, as well as for the purchase of tickets and tourist packages in dollars for destinations outside Argentina.
Over the past year, the Card Dollar quotation, closely related to the Real Broad Dollar Index, has shown a distinct pattern. After peaking early in 2025, the index began a steady decline through mid-2025. From September 2024, the Dollar strengthened, reaching a high of approximately 122.6 in January 2025. However, after this peak, the index trended lower, falling to around 114.6 by July 2025.
This decline coincides with broader market factors such as soft U.S. labor market data and expectations of monetary easing, which have weakened the dollar against major currencies. As of mid-August 2025, the U.S. Dollar Index, which tracks the dollar against a basket of currencies including the euro, yen, and pound, was reported near 97.97 points, reflecting a broadly similar pattern of dollar strength peaking in late 2024/early 2025 before weakening in 2025.
As of August 15, 2025, the current quotation for the Card Dollar stands at $1703. Compared to the previous month, the Card Dollar has increased by 3%, while compared to the same day of the previous week, it has decreased by 2%. It's interesting to note that the value of the Card Dollar has a difference of 31% with the blue dollar, currently quoted at $1300.
