Card-to-card and stablecoin transfers usually arrive within minutes; bank payouts can take up to 1–3 business days.

What is the GBP to PKR exchange rate today?

The mid-market rate is 1 GBP = 369.2149 PKR. Services add their own markup; we show how much of it you lose.

Are these services legal and safe?
