In biphosphate, two molecules of phosphate are attached through each other to the SAME CARBON atom. Difficult to find this kind of molecule.

Whereas, in bisphophate, two molecules of phosphate group are linked at two DIFFERENT CARBON atom. ex: Fructose 1,6-bisphosphate, where at C1 and C6, each Carbon atom bonded to it.

There is no difference between biphosphate and bisphosphate. They are used interchangeably to refer to a molecule that contains two phosphate groups.
