– Show fractional numbers in prices

Solutions · 2 min read · Updated May 21, 2026

your Tickera prices are showing as round whole numbers (\$9 or \$10) and you need them to show with decimals (\$9.50, \$9.99) — either because your currency requires it or because you use psychological pricing like \$X.99.

The fix: a free add-on plugin

We maintain a small add-on that forces fractional display on every Tickera price even when the underlying value is a whole number. Install it like any other WordPress plugin.

  1. Download: custom-show-fractional-numbers.zip
  2. WordPress admin → Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin, install, activate.
  3. Reload any page that shows ticket prices — whole-number prices now display as \$100.00 instead of \$100.

What it changes

  • Event-page ticket-type prices.
  • Cart line items.
  • Checkout totals.
  • Order confirmation email totals.
  • Tax line items.

The plugin uses Tickera’s number-format filter to force two decimal places. No settings — install, activate, the formatting changes everywhere consistently.

Why Tickera trims decimals by default

Tickera respects the WordPress number-format setting and trims trailing zeroes — so \$100.00 displays as \$100 because the zeros add no information. For most currencies this looks cleaner. For currencies where the decimal is meaningful (or psychologically important), the add-on flips the behaviour.

Currency considerations

This add-on works for any currency Tickera supports. Useful especially for:

  • Currencies that always show two decimals by convention (EUR, USD, GBP, AUD, BRL).
  • Pricing with intentional decimals (\$9.99, \$24.99, \$49.95) for the psychological-price feel.
  • Taxes and fees that don’t round to whole numbers.
