Prices, totals and adjustment amounts in Paddle Billing are JSON strings containing an integer count of minor units, so ten US dollars is an amount of 1000 with a currency code of USD. They are strings rather than numbers so large values and higher-precision currencies survive parsing in languages where every JSON number is a double. Sending a decimal string is rejected by the schema, and so is sending an unquoted number.
Zero-decimal currencies such as JPY use the whole unit, so an amount of 1000 is 1000 yen. Confirm by creating a price and reading it back. Parse into an integer minor-unit type on ingest rather than into a float, and format for display with a per-currency exponent instead of dividing by one hundred everywhere.
