Use this guide to understand which currencies Stripe supports for payments and bank payouts, how conversions work, how to format amounts in API requests (including minor units and decimals), each currencys minimum and maximum charge limits, and specific currency rules.
You can charge customers in over 135 currencies and receive funds in your preferred currency. Converting prices to local currencies can improve customer conversion and authorization rates, while lowering payment processing costs. Learn how to display and charge customers in multiple currencies.
Currency affects three aspects of Stripe payments:
If the charge currency differs from the customers payment method currency, their bank or card issuer might charge the customer a foreign exchange fee. The bank or card issuer might also charge the customer if the payment method and your business are in different countries, regardless of the currency used.
If the charge currency differs from your settlement currency, Stripe converts the charge to your settlement currency, with multiple options for presenting, converting, and charging customers in different currencies.
In certain countries, Stripe might support settlement in additional currencies. If you need liquidity in additional currencies, you can enable settlement in those currencies and add a bank account in the payout settings of your Dashboard. Our payouts documentation lists the different bank account currencies we support. See Stripe pricing for conversion costs.
Integration currency is the currency you set on a Price or PaymentIntent. It appears in the Stripe Dashboard and the currency Stripe Tax uses when recording tax liability in the Stripe Tax reports.
If you use Connect, your platform has additional currency conversion considerations. See Work with multiple currencies to manage currency conversions.
Currencies are two-decimal currencies unless otherwise specified. Currencies shown as links are zero-decimal currencies. Make sure to use all lowercase letters when entering the three-letter ISO code in any payment request.
Stripe users in the selected country can process charges in the following list of currencies, with these exceptions:
* American Express doesnt support any currencies marked with an asterisk (*).
Currencies are two-decimal currencies unless otherwise specified. All API requests expect amount values in the currencys minor unit. For example, set amount as follows:
1000 to charge 10 USD (or any other two-decimal currency).10 to charge 10 JPY (or any other zero-decimal currency).For the following zero-decimal currencies, the charge and the amount are the same, without requiring multiplication. For example, to charge 500 JPY, provide an amount value of 500.
This list contains zero-decimal currencies that have general API support. Currencies listed here might not be available in your specific country. For the list of presentment currencies for your country, see Supported presentment currencies.
The following currencies have special conditions that you need to consider when creating payouts or charges.
| Currency | Description |
|---|---|
| Icelandic Krna (ISK) | ISK transitioned to a zero-decimal currency, but backward compatibility requires you to represent it as a two-decimal value, where the decimal amount is always 00. For example, to charge 5 ISK, provide an amount value of 500. You cant charge fractions of ISK. |
| Hungarian Forint (HUF) | Stripe treats HUF as a zero-decimal currency for payouts, even though you can charge two-decimal amounts. When you create a manual payout in HUF, you must provide integer amounts that are evenly divisible by 100. For example, if you have an available balance of HUF 10.45, you can pay out HUF 10 by submitting 1000 for the amount value. You cant submit a payout for the full balance, HUF 10.45, because the amount value of 1045 isnt evenly divisible by 100. |
| New Taiwan Dollar (TWD) | Stripe treats TWD as a zero-decimal currency for payouts, even though you can charge two-decimal amounts. When you create a manual payout in TWD, you must provide integer amounts that are evenly divisible by 100. For example, if you have an available balance of TWD 800.45, you can pay out TWD 800 by submitting 80000 for the amount value. You cant submit a payout for the full balance, TWD 800.45, because the amount value of 80045 isnt evenly divisible by 100. |
| Ugandan Shilling (UGX) | UGX transitioned to a zero-decimal currency, but backwards compatibility requires you to represent it as a two-decimal value, where the decimal amount is always 00. For example, to charge 5 UGX, provide an amount value of 500. You cant charge fractions of UGX. For invoices where the amount is fractional after prorations, coupons, or taxes, Stripe automatically rounds that amount to the nearest number evenly divisible by 100. We credit or debit any difference from rounding to the customer balance. |
Stripe enforces a minimum payment amount for all charges to make sure the Stripe fee doesnt exceed your charge. The minimum amount you can charge depends on the payout bank account settlement currency.
Subscription charges support zero-amount charges to account for coupons and free trials. However, any non-zero amount is still subject to the applicable minimum.
If you only have one bank account, the minimum amount shown applies to all charges in the same currency as the account. Charges requiring conversion into your accounts default settlement currency must meet the equivalent minimum of the settlement currency.
For example, if you have GBP and USD bank accounts, with GBP set as your default currency, any non-USD charges you create convert to GBP. These charges must meet the minimum amount required for GBP after conversion.
Use these minimum amounts by currency:
Exceptions to the minimum charge amount apply to some payment methods, such as iDEAL (allows amount values as low as 1).
In general, the number of allowed digits limits the maximum amount you can charge a customer.
For card payments, the maximum charge amount is determined by the card network. The amount value supports up to:
Card networks can impose charge amount limits that are more restrictive than digit number, depending on currency and region.
When processing JCB, Diners Club, and Discover cards from Japanese Stripe accounts, the maximum amount is 8 digits (99,999,999 JPY), regardless of the card network limits listed above. Learn more about accepting JCB payments in Japan.
For non-card payment methods, the number of allowed digits limits the maximum amount you can charge. The amount value supports up to:
999999999999)9999999999)999999999)99999999)Some payment methods enforce their own per-currency maximums that can be more restrictive than these limits.
In Hong Kong, you can accept these cards: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, JCB, China UnionPay, debit cards.
You can accept additional payment methods based on your Stripe accounts country, which you configure when you set up your Stripe account.
Cards issued in the European Economic Area (EEA) often have fees that differ from other regions. Processing costs can vary by issuing region because of cross-border fees and exchange rates, which means EEA-issued cards can incur different fees depending on the transaction currency.
Use these region-specific fees to inform your pricing when you accept multiple currencies. Stripe defines EEA cards as cards issued in the following countries:
Remittance to or from countries with foreign exchange control (including, but not limited to, Brazil) is carried out exclusively through authorized channels, pursuant to the legislation applicable in those countries.
