Exchange rates can be displayed in different ways depending on the context. There's the Egyptian pound to pound exchange rate, and the Egyptian pound buyback rate. The two are in fact the same; they are just displayed differently.
The Egyptian pound to pound exchange rate corresponds to the value of one Egyptian pound in British pounds. For example, a Egyptian pound to pound rate of 0.04 means one Egyptian pound is worth 0.04 pounds.
In contrast, the Egyptian pound buyback rate corresponds to the amount of Egyptian pounds you'd have to exchange to get one pound. For example, a Egyptian pound buyback rate of 25 means you'd have to exchange 25 Egyptian pounds to get one pound.
UK currency suppliers prefer to show the Egyptian pound buyback rate instead of the Egyptian pound to pound exchange rate, so we follow the same format in our Egyptian pound comparisons. However, on this page, we use the Egyptian pound to pound exchange rate since this is what the data is intended to show.
The two rates are interchangeable: to convert the Egyptian pound buyback rate into the actual Egyptian pound to pound rate, just divide 1 by the Egyptian pound buyback rate, e.g.: 1 / 25 = 0.04.
If you want to exchange Egyptian pounds into British pounds, we can help you to find a reputable foreign exchange provider. We compare the Egyptian pound rates from tried-and-tested companies who will buy currency by post or over the counter.
