ATMs in Sharm give out money only in national currency (pounds), charge fees (check with the bank that issued your card). Only then can you exchange for dollars.
You can pay by card in dollars in shopping centers where there are terminals. The card will also charge fees. Your bank charges % for using the card and commission fees at the same time as paying for goods or services.

Yes, if you decide to use the card, it will not be superfluous to warn the bank that issued you the card that you will be in Egypt on certain dates. For what? Sometimes the bank's security service blocks the card if it sees that money is being debited from the card in another country.

If you are going to make purchases, then it is more profitable to pay in Pounds, and if you buy excursions, then in dollars.

It is always profitable to pay for purchases with a card, since this is not a cashing out operation and the percentage is not taken, and it is better to do it in a supermarket, since there the fixed price is the same as that of street hucksters after half an hour of trading, although it is a thrill for someone

"It is always beneficial to pay for purchases with a card, since this is not a cash-out operation and no interest is taken"
Let me disagree, each bank has its own terms of service. My bank, for example, does not charge a fee if I withdraw cash and charges 1.5% if I pay by card. Therefore, what is more profitable for you, it is better to find out in your bank.

If you use the card abroad, your bank will ALWAYS withdraw its fees and % for its maintenance. When you arrive home, take a printout from your bank and you will see what amounts and for what operations were withdrawn.
But best of all, find out all the conditions for servicing your card abroad before the trip.

I paid by card abroad, while the bank does not charge any interest, in addition, the exchange rate is much more profitable than just buying foreign currency, but a commission is really taken for withdrawing money. The commission is not charged only if you withdraw money from an ATM of your bank. I have a Sberbank card.

In each CIS country, banks have their own laws. Paying with a card is naturally more convenient, but this is not Europe, but Egypt, and you should not forget about it. You first find out the terms of service for you abroad and specifically in Egypt. Due to the instability after political events, when all banking operations were frozen, there is a risk that at any moment everything could happen again.

I understand what you want! You have a cash problem in your country. But before you get pounds at their ATM, first find where you can exchange their pounds for $, I have not come across this, but I read that it is difficult to exchange pounds for another currency in Egypt.

In the country, I had no problems exchanging pounds for dollars. At the old market, you go to the exchange kiosk and change everything. True, despite the fixed rate, they can still exchange it in their own way. Bargain even here. Regarding the ATM: right next to the entrance to the reception is an ATM and a bank branch. True, it doesn't always work. Regarding the card - there may be problems with the calculation (I tried to pay - it did not work out). Just in case, before traveling to Egypt, notify your bank where you are going and ask them to remove the limit on the number of transactions, if you have it on your card. In general, it is better to go with cash.

Actually, I also agree that it is better to go to Egypt with cash. This is certainly not Europe and you won’t make any special purchases in Egypt. And there are no problems with cash in Egypt, if you want to pay in pounds, if you want in dollars, if you want in euros.
