👋 happy to help

#

yes this is due to floating precision in javascript

#

you should use parseInt(154.61 * 100)

#

Can I use (154.61 *100).toFixed(2)?

little bobcat Oct 13, 2022, 9:48 AM

#

amounts in cents should be an integer

#

.toFixed(2) would give you a float number

quartz plaza Oct 13, 2022, 9:49 AM

#

okay got it

#

But what if my number goes like 154.6159

little bobcat Oct 13, 2022, 9:50 AM

#

are we talking about PaymentIntents or Checkout?

quartz plaza Oct 13, 2022, 9:52 AM

#

PaymentIntents

little bobcat Oct 13, 2022, 9:59 AM

#

we don't allow more than 2 decimal points

#

for PaymentIntents

quartz plaza Oct 13, 2022, 10:01 AM

#

So can I use toFixed(2)?

little bobcat Oct 13, 2022, 10:03 AM

#

I mean you can charge 154.61 but not 154.6159

quartz plaza Oct 13, 2022, 10:16 AM

#

parseInt(154.61 * 100) will return string

little bobcat Oct 13, 2022, 10:17 AM

#

not true

quartz plaza Oct 13, 2022, 10:18 AM

#

Mean?

#

Sorry my bad

#

Can we user round here?

frigid robin Oct 13, 2022, 10:20 AM

#

yep, you can

#

what I would suggest though is not using decimals at all, the amounts you store in your database/hard-code as the source for what your products cost should be stored the same way we accept(as integers in the smallest currency unit like cents), and then you wouldn't have this type of problem at all
