FAQs - Pound-Danish kroner
Do you want to change your pounds to kroners but still have doubts? Find your answers here or else contact us, we are ready to help!
1) What is the exchange rate from pound to danish kroner? Exchange rates fluctuate and change daily. You can check the exchange rate for today on this website or in any of our branches in Denmark.
Anyhow, please bear in mind that by ordering online your DKKs for collection at the airport, you get a 25% off, deducted from the exchange margin. Therefore, it is always more interesting for you to book online and collect your DKKs and pay with pounds at the airport the day you travel.
2) Will I be charged a commission for changing my pound to dkk with you? We currently do not charge any service fees for any of our currency exchange transactions at Copenhagen international airport.
However, at Billund International airport we charge a fee depending on the currency you exchange. Please check this fee in any of our branches at the airport or when making your reservation online with collection in Billund.
Remember that when making an online reservation, we guarantee the best price (more DKKs for the same GBP), with a 25% discount on the exchange margin.
3) Do I get the same pound to kroner exchange rate in this website or in any of your branches? No, the GBP-DKK exchange rate we offer on our website is different from the rate we offer in our branches.
When you order your kroners via our website we guarantee you a 25% off the exchange margin of the airport. Remember that by ordering online you will pay your online reservation directly at the airport, the day you travel, benefiting from this 25% off.
If the day you collect your order in our branches the GBP-DKK exchange rate offered there is better than the rate on which you ordered your money, we will apply the most favourable rate for you.
4) Where can I collect the DKK I ordered online? After placing your online order, you'll be able to collect your kroners and pay for them with pounds at any of our branches in Denmark. Besides getting the best exchange rate for your online exchange (more DKK for the same pounds), this service allows you to save time and reduce anxiety, as you will have the currency you need ready for your trip abroad.
5) Why does the pound to danish kroner exchange rate seem cheaper and more attractive in the Internet than in exchange businesses, including Global Exchange? The exchange rates shown in Internet currency converters are for currency wholesalers (foreign exchange transactions for financial and international trade companies), not for the public. Those cheaper rates are for the foreign exchange operations (FX market), not for currency exchange operations cash-to-cash (retail).
6) What is the difference between foreign exchange and currency exchange? Foreign exchange (Forex or FX, for short) is the market that establishes the value of the currencies in which international transactions will be performed, at a wholesale level. Currency exchange, on the other hand, is the market in which individual currencies are sold in retail on a certain price depending on demand. Currency exchange entails cash transactions, thus adding logistic costs, and therefore their exchange rates are somewhat "worse" than the Forex rates, which only move money between accounts.
7) What is the difference between changing pounds to kroners with Global Exchange or at my bank? Banks charge a margin plus a fee and in addition, it may be necessary to go to the bank up to twice: first to order and then to pick up your currency.
At Global Exchange you can order online DKK and pick up and pay for your currency at the airport with a 25% discount on the exchange rate margin. Therefore, the price is online lower than the one you want at the airport (you will get more DKK for the same pounds).
