What is the current GBP to ILS exchange rate?

Exchange rates fluctuate daily. This tool uses a reference rate refreshed hourly from a public feed, and the page shows exactly when it was last updated. Always confirm the live rate with your bank or a regulated money transfer provider before transacting.

How accurate is this converter?

It uses an hourly-refreshed indicative rate for quick estimates. For live mid-market rates, check a financial data provider such as your bank. Real transactions include a spread so the actual rate you receive may differ.

Can I convert ILS back to GBP?

Yes — type in the ILS field and the GBP field updates automatically, or use the swap button to reverse the direction.

What is the Israeli new shekel?

The Israeli new shekel (ILS, symbol ₪) is the official currency of Israel, issued by the Bank of Israel. It replaced the old shekel in 1986 at a rate of 1000 old shekels per new shekel.

Does this tool store my data?

No data is sent to any server. All calculations happen entirely in your browser and nothing is recorded or stored.

Why does my bank rate differ from this tool?

Banks and money transfer services apply a spread (margin) on top of the mid-market rate, plus possible fees. This tool shows the mid-market reference rate, which is always better than what retail customers receive.
