Where does the exchange rate come from?

The rate box is pre-filled with the latest mid-market reference rate from our rate table, which is checked every hour against a public feed of daily reference rates. The line under the box shows when the rate was last updated and its source. Banks and card providers add a spread, so type your bank's rate over it when you need the exact amount.

How accurate is the conversion?

The calculation is exact to the precision your browser supports. Results are displayed rounded to 2 decimal places, which matches standard currency formatting for GBP.

Can I convert GBP back to IDR?

Yes. Click the swap arrows button between the two fields to reverse the direction instantly. The rate label and table update automatically.

Is any data sent to a server?

No. All calculations run entirely in your browser using JavaScript. Nothing you enter is transmitted to any server.

What exchange rate should I use?

Use the mid-market rate for a rough estimate, or your bank's buy/sell rate for actual transactions. Rates fluctuate continuously, so always fetch a fresh rate before large transfers.

Why is the Indonesian Rupiah abbreviated IDR?

IDR is the ISO 4217 currency code for the Indonesian Rupiah. "Rp" is the local symbol used in Indonesia, while IDR is the international standard used in forex markets and banking.

How much is 1,000,000 IDR in GBP?

Divide 1,000,000 by the number of IDR per GBP. The rate box above is pre-filled with that figure from our latest reference rates, so type 1000000 in the IDR field to see the amount at today's rate. Your bank's figure will differ by its spread.

Why does 1 GBP equal so many Rupiah?

The Rupiah has a high nominal denomination relative to major currencies. A single British Pound buys tens of thousands of Rupiah, which is purely a result of historical denomination choices — purchasing power inside Indonesia is what matters for daily spending.
