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.
Who converts dollars to pounds, and what it costs
The pound is the third most traded currency, and USD to GBP matters most to British sellers on American marketplaces, UK freelancers with US clients, and Americans paying UK suppliers. Etsy, eBay and Amazon settle UK sellers in pounds and convert dollar sales at their own rates; PayPal charges a spread of about 3–4%; a Wise or Revolut dollar balance receives at the mid-market rate for a fraction of that.
UK sellers on US marketplaces can often choose to be paid in dollars into a multi-currency account rather than let the marketplace convert, which typically saves 2–3% on every payout. Freelancers invoicing US clients face the same choice on each invoice.
What moves GBP/USD
Bank of England and Federal Reserve rate expectations, and UK-specific events — the 2016 referendum and the 2022 mini-budget each moved the pound sharply. The pair has ranged from about 1.07 to 1.70 dollars per pound over the last fifteen years.
