The rate shown is a mid-market reference rate, the midpoint between buying and selling prices. Banks, money changers and card networks add a margin, so the rate you actually receive is usually a little worse. Compare the total USD you end up with, not just the headline rate, and check for fixed fees.
GBP to USD formula
USD amount = GBP amount × 1.3201.
GBP amount = USD amount ÷ 1.3201.
Rates are cross-calculated through the US dollar from European Central Bank reference rates, so the result is consistent in both directions.

- Why is the bank or money changer rate different from this rate?
- This is the mid-market reference rate. Providers add a spread (a worse buy or sell rate) and sometimes a fixed fee, so you normally receive less USD per GBP than the headline rate. Always compare the final amount you receive.
- How often are the rates updated?
- The European Central Bank publishes reference rates once each working day, around 16:00 CET. Weekends and holidays show the previous working day's rates. These are reference rates, not live trading quotes, so they are not suitable for trading or for locking in a large transfer.
