Reference date1 USD in GBP

Chart points are official ECB daily reference observations via Frankfurter, not intraday prices. Weekends and ECB holidays may have no observations. Historical performance does not predict future exchange rates.

How is USD to GBP calculated?

We use ECB reference rates quoted against the euro. The USD to GBP cross-rate equals the EUR-to-GBP rate divided by the EUR-to-USD rate for the same observation date. The amount is multiplied by that cross-rate.

Will I receive this rate at the Post Office or M&S Travel Money?

Not necessarily. Banks and travel-money providers apply their own customer exchange rates and may charge fees. Check the provider's actual offer before exchanging money.
