Charge.setAmount( int amount) should be Charge.setAmount( double amount)

charge.setAmount requires an int because you are setting kobo value. If you want to charge a hundred naira, you set amount as 100 * 100 = 10000. Hope that helps.

Hi Ibrahim thanks for the reply. This question probably sounds stupid but i'll ask anyway. So that will will mean if I want to charge anywhere from 1kobo to 90kobo I wont be doing any multiplication right or...? also when you want to charge 100.50 that mean it will be 105*105 yes?

Hi @uchechukwudim,

Ha! No o!

If you want to charge 1 kobo, which is, 0.01 naira, you set 100 * 0.01 = 1 If you want to charge 90 kobo, which is, 0.90 naira, you set 100 * 0.90 = 90 If you want to charge 100.50 naira, you set 100 * 100.50 = 10050

Hope that helps.

Thank you very much for clarifying that out for me. When it comes to money one has to be extra sure sure. Talking about being extra sure. So the formula becomes: A constant 100 multiplied by actual amount (100 * Amount)? Yes?

[ibrahimlawal]

Yes, setAmount accepts the kobo value, which is: the naira value multiplied by 100.
