Use our Australian dollar buyback comparisons to find the best deal, then follow the link to the buyer's website to place your order online and lock-in your buyback rate. You'll need to decide whether to post your Australian dollars to the buyer, or try searching for a store near you so you can exchange your Australian dollars in person.

No, you'll get more for your Australian dollars if you sell when the Australian dollar buyback rate is low. This is due to a quirk of how British currency providers display their buyback exchange rates.
When you buy Australian dollars, the exchange rate you get is the amount of Australian dollars you'll receive for every pound that you spend, so for example a rate of 1.9403 means you'd get $1.9403 for each £1 that you spend. You can calculate the total amount of Australian dollars you'd receive for a given amount of sterling by simply multiplying the sterling amount by the exchange rate.
When it comes to selling Australian dollars, the buyback rate is expressed in terms of how many Australian dollars you'd need to sell in order to get £1, so a buyback rate of 1.9403 means you'd need to sell $1.9403 to get £1. To calculate the sterling value of a given amount of Australian dollars, you need to divide the Australian dollar amount by the buyback rate. Since you're dividing by the buyback rate, a lower buyback rate means you'd get more sterling compared to a higher buyback rate.
One Australian dollar ($) can be subdivded into 100 cents (c). There are five denominations of Australian dollar banknotes in circulation: $5, $10, $20, $50 and $100; and six coin denominations: 5c, 10c, 20c, 50c, $1 and $2.
