What is the GBP/CNY exchange rate today?

1 British Pound buys 9.1022 Chinese Yuan, the mid-market rate from Twelve Data, as of Aug 12, 2026, 8:50 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/CNY 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 9.1022 and you’d receive CN¥9,102.20. A provider adding a 2% margin would give about CN¥8,920.16 — roughly CN¥182.04 less. Compare any quote against the mid-market rate to see the true cost.

How has GBP/CNY moved recently?

Over the last 64 trading days, GBP/CNY ranged from 8.94666 to 9.15773, averaging 9.06609. Each point is a daily close; weekends and holidays have no published fix, so the line skips them.
