Convert Euro (EUR) to British Pound (GBP)

When to use EUR → GBP

EUR to GBP ("euro-sterling") is the most-traded European cross, driven by UK-EU trade flows that remain large despite Brexit. The pair trades around 0.85 long-term, swinging ±10 % over multi-year cycles. London-based corporates hedging EUR receivables and Continental tourism into Britain both depend on this rate. The ECB publishes the GBP reference daily; that's the value shown here. Card spreads in cross-Channel travel typically run 2–3 % above mid-market — bring a no-FX-fee debit card or use a multi-currency account for material savings.

Where do these rates come from?

The European Central Bank publishes daily reference rates around 16:00 CET. Convertitive consumes them through the Frankfurter open data service and refreshes its cache every hour.

How often is the rate updated?

Up to once per hour, and only when the ECB itself has issued a new value. Over weekends and holidays the displayed rate stays at the previous business day's close.

Why isn't this the rate my bank quotes?

Mid-market rates are a benchmark; retail banks and card networks add a spread on every conversion to cover their costs and margin. Expect that spread to be 1–3 % on most card transactions and 0.4–0.8 % at large brokers.

Can I use this for accounting or invoicing?

Use it as a reference. For official accounting, most jurisdictions require a documented rate from a central bank or your tax authority (which often publish their own daily values).

What's a 'mid-market' rate?

The midpoint between the buying and selling prices that wholesale banks quote each other. It's the closest thing to a 'real' rate for an individual to compare against.
