Stripe: parameter_invalid_integer, New to PHP

Question

I am debugging my code. I am no genius at PHP and need some help to decipher what I declare as the parameter if it is not an integer...

Can anyone help?

{

  "error": {

    "code": "parameter_invalid_integer",

    "doc_url": "https://stripe.com/docs/error-codes/parameter-invalid-integer",

    "message": "Invalid integer: 1.13",

    "param": "amount",

    "type": "invalid_request_error"

  }

$app->post('/createCharges', function() use ($app) { $response = array();

    $json = $app->request->getBody();
    $data = array(json_decode($json,true));

    $amount = $data[0]['amount'];
    $source = $data[0]['source'];
    $appointmentid = $data[0]['appointmentid'];


    \Stripe\Stripe::setVerifySslCerts(false);
    \Stripe\Stripe::setApiKey(STRIPE_API_KEY);

    $charge = \Stripe\Charge::create(array(
        "amount" => $amount,
        "currency" => "usd",
        "source" => $source,
        "description" => "test order from ios"
    ));

It may be a simple fix, but we can't see your code unless you post in your question. — Felippe Duarte, Nov 28 '18 at 19:59
should I send the whole class? I have so much code I don't know what to send... — c andrews, Nov 28 '18 at 20:18
The message explicitly says that you have an invalid integer 1.13 in the parameter amount. You may want to look at that point of your code and share this piece of information where you mount the parameters. — Felippe Duarte, Nov 28 '18 at 20:24
Try to shrink your code, so that you have a minimal (non) working example and then post this code (with error message). — JGK, Nov 28 '18 at 20:28

With Stripe, the amount property of a Charge is always an integer in the smallest unit of a currency (cents for USD).

https://stripe.com/docs/api/charges/create#create_charge-amount

So to charge $1.13 you'd need to make sure the amount that you pass in \Stripe\Charge::create is 113 rather than 1.13 --- if your front-end is passing a decimal value a simple *100 should get you the value you need here, e.g. $amount = (int)($data[0]['amount'] * 100);

Though it's an aged post nevertheless I'm willing to leave an answer to help someone else.

Stripe always receive integer as $cent value. So, whenever you tend to create a charge or payout or transfer or any type of transaction through Stripe you are bound to set cent value as an integer. So to charge $5010.458 you must have to convert it to cent as an integer which mustn't contain any fractional/decimal components.

You have several options to do so. For instance:

$amount = (number_format($amount, 2, '.', '') * 100)

If you charged as cent you may use: round(), ceil(), or floor() PHP functions to get nearest integer value. Also, you can use casting:* (int) $amount or intval($amount) as well.

(int)($request->amount * 100),

$checkout_session = \Stripe\PaymentIntent::create([
        'amount' => (int)($request->amount * 100),
        'currency' => 'AED',
        'description' => "booking"
    ]);
