Hi

The Stripe API does not accept decimals in most cases
So I'd recommend storing and charging in cents

Okay, but how do we deal with some cases where we need to divide amounts already stored in cents in case of partial refunds for example?
Does stripe store these values in cents or in decimals?
And how many decimal places does it consider?

We don't accept decimals for refunds
So you should perform any rounding you need to prior to passing the amount to the Stripe API
Then I would store the actual amount your refunded

I see
Just out of curiosity, do you also store these values as integers (cents) or does the stripe db store it as decimal values?

Integers
