Israeli shekel (ILS) to British pound (GBP) exchange rate chart and trend analysis based on real data sourced directly from UK currency suppliers
Our British pound to Israeli shekel chart plots the actual Israeli shekel buyback rates offered by our panel of UK currency providers at the end of each day, so you can see the historical performance of the Israeli shekel against the pound and monitor fluctuations in the exchange rate over time.
This page shows the Israeli shekel to pound exchange rate, not the Israeli shekel buyback rate advertised in our Israeli shekel buyback comparisons. Both rates are the same, but the buyback rate is displayed in a different format due to the way UK currency suppliers advertise their buyback rates. Learn more

Exchange rates can be displayed in different ways depending on the context. There's the Israeli shekel to pound exchange rate, and the Israeli shekel buyback rate. The two are in fact the same; they are just displayed differently.
The Israeli shekel to pound exchange rate corresponds to the value of one Israeli shekel in British pounds. For example, a Israeli shekel to pound rate of 0.2439 means one Israeli shekel is worth 0.2439 pounds.
In contrast, the Israeli shekel buyback rate corresponds to the amount of Israeli shekels you'd have to exchange to get one pound. For example, a Israeli shekel buyback rate of 4.1 means you'd have to exchange 4.1 Israeli shekels to get one pound.
UK currency suppliers prefer to show the Israeli shekel buyback rate instead of the Israeli shekel to pound exchange rate, so we follow the same format in our Israeli shekel comparisons. However, on this page, we use the Israeli shekel to pound exchange rate since this is what the data is intended to show.
The two rates are interchangeable: to convert the Israeli shekel buyback rate into the actual Israeli shekel to pound rate, just divide 1 by the Israeli shekel buyback rate, e.g.: 1 / 4.1 = 0.2439.
