What is the GBP/CAD exchange rate today?
1 British Pound buys 1.88553 Canadian Dollar, the mid-market rate from Twelve Data, as of Oct 6, 2026, 11:59 PM UTC. The mid-market rate is the midpoint between the buy and sell prices banks trade at — the fair reference rate, not the price you’ll be charged.
How often does the GBP/CAD rate update?
The live rate refreshes about once a minute, and every reading is stamped with its own UTC time so you always know how fresh it is. Past daily points are immutable — once a day closes, its rate never changes.
Why is this different from my bank’s rate?
The rate here is mid-market; banks and apps quote a slightly worse rate and keep the difference as their margin. For example, change £1,000.00 at 1.88553 and you’d receive CA$1,885.53. A provider adding a 2% margin would give about CA$1,847.82 — roughly CA$37.71 less. Compare any quote against the mid-market rate to see the true cost.
How has GBP/CAD moved recently?
Over the last 64 trading days, GBP/CAD ranged from 1.86148 to 1.89971, averaging 1.88047. Each point is a daily close; weekends and holidays have no published fix, so the line skips them.
