There are a number of ways you can display the prices on your store:
Format in which price cannot be rounded
{{amount}} : E.g.: 1,135.99
{{amount_with_comma_separator}} : E.g.: 1.135,99
{{amount_with_apostrophe_separator}} : E.g.: 1'135.99
Format in which price can be rounded
{{amount_no_decimals}} : E.g.: 1, 135
{{amount_no_decimals_with_comma_separator}} : E.g.: 1.135
The price will be rounded up if the decimal number is greater than or equal to 50, or rounded down if it is below 50.
Currency format is rounded to 2 decimal places. Regardless of which currency format you chose, payment at your store's checkout will always show decimals.
C. Change currency formatting
From your ShopBase admin, go to Settings > General.
In the Store currency section, click Change formatting.
In each of the fields, replace the current currency format, such as {{amount}}, with a new one that you want to use as listed in section B.
Click Save once finished.
You can only change the store currency before you've made your first sale. Stores that have received real orders can no longer change their currency format.
