About the GBP and EUR

GBP: Pound Sterling

Symbol £ · issued by the Bank of England.

Pound Sterling is used in the United Kingdom and is frequently compared with USD and EUR for travel, shopping, salaries, and invoices.

  • Sterling is one of the oldest currencies still in use, with roots going back more than 1,200 years.
  • Traders nickname the GBP/USD pair "cable", after the transatlantic telegraph cable once used to transmit its rate.
  • The Bank of England, founded in 1694, sets UK interest rates and issues the pound.

EUR: Euro

Symbol € · issued by the European Central Bank.

The Euro is used across the euro area and is one of the most common reference currencies for travel, online shopping, invoices, and international planning.

  • The euro is the official currency of around 20 European Union countries and is the second most-held reserve currency after the US dollar.
  • It launched as electronic money in 1999 and entered circulation as notes and coins in 2002.
  • Monetary policy for the whole euro area is set centrally by the European Central Bank in Frankfurt.

What moves the GBP to EUR rate

The GBP to EUR rate changes constantly as markets react to economic data and policy. The Pound Sterling is most influenced by Bank of England rate decisions, UK inflation and growth, and political and trade developments. The Euro responds mainly to European Central Bank interest-rate policy, euro-area inflation and growth, and the EUR/USD balance. When these forces pull in different directions, the rate can shift noticeably within a single day.

That is why the figures on this page are a reference snapshot rather than a guaranteed price. The calculator above refreshes the live rate automatically, while any bank or payment provider will apply its own GBP to EUR rate at the moment your transaction settles.
