FAQs - Danish kroner-Pound Sterling
Do you want to change your danish kroner into pounds but still have doubts? Find your answers here or else contact us, we are ready to help!
1) What is the dkk to gbp exchange rate? Exchange rates fluctuate and change daily. You can check the exchange rate for today on this website or in any of our branches. Anyhow, please bear in mind that by ordering online your krones 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 and pay at the airport the day you travel.
2) Will I be charged a commission for changing my danish kroner to pounds 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, with a 25% discount on the exchange margin.
3) Do I get the same dkk to pound exchange rate in this website that in any of your branches? No, the exchange rate we offer on our website is different from the rate we offer in our exchange branches at the airport.
When you order your pounds (GBP) 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 of GBPs directly at the airport with your crowns, the day you travel, benefiting from this 25% off.
If the day you collect your order in our branches the dkk to gbp exchange rate offered there is better than the rate at which you ordered your money initially, we will apply the most favourable rate for you.
4) Where can I collect the pounds I ordered online? After placing your online order, you'll be able to collect it and pay for it at any of our branches in Denmark. Besides getting the best exchange rate for your online exchange (more pounds for the same crowns), this service allows you to save time and reduce anxiety, as you will have the currency you need ready for your trip to Denmark.
5) Why does the kroner to pound exchange rate seem cheaper and more attractive on 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 which is a retail business.
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 switching kroner to pound with Global Exchange instead of 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 your DKK and then to pick them up. At Global Exchange you can order online your kroner and pick up and pay for them at the airport with a 25% discount on the exchange rate margin.
Therefore, the online price is lower than the one you get at the airport (you will get more DKKs for the same dollars).
