About the British Pound (GBP)
Sterling is issued by the Bank of England and remains one of the most-traded currencies globally. London's role as a financial hub keeps GBP liquidity deep and spreads tight.
UK marketplace sellers (eBay.co.uk, Etsy UK, Depop's home market) price and get paid in pounds — Depop's boosted-listing fee is even higher in the UK (12%) than the US (8%), so the GBP rate matters twice for resellers.
Issued by the Bank of England. The pound floats freely; it is the world's oldest currency still in use.
About the Euro (EUR)
The euro is the official currency of 20 EU countries and the second-largest reserve currency after the dollar. The ECB's daily reference rate — the source used on this page — is the standard benchmark for EUR conversions.
Sellers on European marketplaces (Etsy, eBay, Amazon EU sites) are typically paid in euros, so the EUR/USD rate directly moves what non-EU sellers actually receive.
Issued by the European Central Bank. The euro floats freely and is the world's second most-traded currency.
