What your card will add
The mid-market rate is the midpoint between buying and selling. A bank card typically adds 1–3% to it, an airport bureau de change considerably more, and a shop offering to charge you in your own currency (“dynamic currency conversion”) more still. Decline that offer and pay in GBP.
