About the South African Rand to British Pound rate

This page converts the South African Rand (ZAR) into the British Pound (GBP) at the mid-market rate. Both currencies trade continuously on the foreign exchange market, and the ratio between them moves with interest rates, inflation and the trade flows between their economies. The rate shown here is the neutral reference each bank, card network and bureau de change then builds its own price on top of.

Every figure on this page is an hourly mid-market reading of ZAR/GBP. It says where the pair stands right now, not where it is heading: no rate here is a forecast, a quote, or an offer to exchange.

Why does the ZAR to GBP rate keep changing?

The South African Rand and the British Pound are priced against each other continuously on the currency market, and this page follows that market with an hourly refresh. Interest rates, inflation, trade flows and political news all move the pair, which is why the rate you saw in the morning is rarely the rate you see at night.
