How we calculate the EUR/GBP mid-market rate
The mid-market rate is the midpoint between the buy and sell prices on global currency markets — it's the fairest exchange rate available. We aggregate data from 4 independent sources and take the median value, which eliminates outliers and provides a more reliable rate than any single source.
When a money transfer provider quotes you a rate, compare it against the mid-market rate shown on this page. The difference is the provider's markup — their profit on the currency conversion. On the EUR/GBP pair, the best providers typically mark up by 0.2–0.8%, while banks can mark up by 2–5%.
