No two providers quote GBP/KES identically: each sets its own buy and sell price and its own margin, so the rate you actually get depends on where you trade. The composite above is a market reference rather than an offer — the per-provider breakdown is where the prices you can actually transact at are.
Providers may also charge swap, network or transfer fees inside their own app or API which are not part of the quoted rate. Everything here is for information purposes only — confirm the final amount with the provider before you trade.
