The GBP to EUR exchange rate has been influenced by a series of recent developments, both in the UK and the Eurozone, alongside volatile trends in oil prices. As the UK faces new tariffs from the U.S., including a 10% duty on imports, the British pound (GBP) has seen downward pressure. Analysts have noted a mixed performance for the pound following disheartening PMI data, which revealed a surprise contraction in the British service sector, triggering concerns about the UK economy's health. Forecasts suggest that if further economic indicators, such as the Confederation of British Industry’s surveys, display signs of struggle among UK businesses, the GBP could decline even further.

There are several ways to save on exchange rates when converting British pound to Euro:
Generally speaking, if you are buying Euro with British pound, then it's better for the GBP/EUR exchange rate to be higher.
However working against you are the fees all foreign exchange providers charge for providing their service. These fees is usually contained within the exchange rate margin (or difference to the mid-rate).
The transaction margin you end up being charged can be considerably reduced by around a few percent (of total amount being exchanged) for travel money and possibly over 5% to 6% when sending money. The exact potential savings depends on the currencies being exchanged and the amount you are transferring and if you are willing to shop around.
Our real-time foreign transfer and travel money/cards comparison calculators make shopping around easy and help you calculate how much you can save.
