It is fine as long as you don’t cross any edge cases (crypto, or more recently stuff like AI token pricing) and don’t forget to account for third party quirks (e.g. Stripe’s zero-decimal currencies: https://docs.stripe.com/currencies#zero-decimal).

JPY not having any minor units is arguably not a “third party quirk” but just how the currency works. The same goes for various three decimal digit currencies.
