How we display buy back rates
You might notice the Costa Rica colon rates shown here are different to the Costa Rica colon rates offered by currency suppliers on our comparison pages. The rates are actually the same but are just presented in different ways. When we talk about the CRC / GBP exchange rate, we show the CRC rate relative to the pound so a rate of 0.001266 literally means 1 CRC = 0.001266 GBP.
However, UK currency suppliers choose to show this rate in terms of the amount of Costa Rica colons you would need to exchange to receive 1 GBP, so (1 /) 0.001266 becomes 790.0. Or put another way, 790.0 CRC = 1 GBP. The two rates are interchangeable but currency suppliers prefer to show the second rate which they call the buy back rate.
