Exchange rates can be displayed in different ways depending on the context. There's the Bulgarian lev to pound exchange rate, and the Bulgarian lev buyback rate. The two are in fact the same; they are just displayed differently.
The Bulgarian lev to pound exchange rate corresponds to the value of one Bulgarian lev in British pounds. For example, a Bulgarian lev to pound rate of 0.4545 means one Bulgarian lev is worth 0.4545 pounds.
In contrast, the Bulgarian lev buyback rate corresponds to the amount of Bulgarian leva you'd have to exchange to get one pound. For example, a Bulgarian lev buyback rate of 2.2 means you'd have to exchange 2.2 Bulgarian leva to get one pound.
UK currency suppliers prefer to show the Bulgarian lev buyback rate instead of the Bulgarian lev to pound exchange rate, so we follow the same format in our Bulgarian lev comparisons. However, on this page, we use the Bulgarian lev to pound exchange rate since this is what the data is intended to show.
The two rates are interchangeable: to convert the Bulgarian lev buyback rate into the actual Bulgarian lev to pound rate, just divide 1 by the Bulgarian lev buyback rate, e.g.: 1 / 2.2 = 0.4545.
