PHP's money_format() function?
{{ money_format('%n', $amount) }}
// I also make sure the locale is set somewhere
setlocale(LC_MONETARY, 'en_GB.UTF-8');

Stripe API
Hi All,
I'm using Laravel obviously and Stripe API (not Cashier) and I want to get the amount to return into a properly formatted value.
Currently i get the customer charge object and the amount returns 2399 which I need to be displayed within the CMS as 23.99 so my question is how can I get this object then convert it to a proper format?

Already tried that @bashy and it returns 2399.00 but should be 23.99
Level 51
I divided it by 100 and that worked.

money_format('%.2n',23.99)
should work

Depends how you stored it in the database. Decimal (10,2) should be good enough

@bashy I am pretty sure that storing currency as a decimal isn't best practice. Integer and divide by 100 is best practice as I understand it.

What about 23000 / 100?
