What is the ZAR/GBP exchange rate today?
1 South African Rand buys 0.0459155 British Pound, the mid-market rate from Twelve Data, as of Aug 13, 2026, 2:52 AM 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 ZAR/GBP 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 ZAR 1,000.00 at 0.0459155 and you’d receive £45.92. A provider adding a 2% margin would give about £45.00 — roughly £0.92 less. Compare any quote against the mid-market rate to see the true cost.
How has ZAR/GBP moved recently?
Over the last 64 trading days, ZAR/GBP ranged from 0.0445416 to 0.0461971, averaging 0.0455285. Each point is a daily close; weekends and holidays have no published fix, so the line skips them.
