From their docs [1] it looks like they do everything using integers: the amounts are integers in the "minor unit" of currency, for example cents if the currency is dollars. So 1000 means $10.00. In languages like JavaScript where everything is a float64, you can still accurately represent integers up to 2^53, which would be $90 trillion.

This isn't sufficient to represent prices which often include fractional amounts of cents in non-retail scenarios. Think of AWS server prices per hour.

Funny, because that's exactly what Stripe does (https://docs.stripe.com/billing/subscriptions/usage-based/pr...)

But those are decimal values, not integers. I didn't mean that using cents as a unit was insufficient, I meant that using integers was.
