Decimal Precision - iGamingXpert

Decimal precision describes how many digits a system preserves when storing or calculating a number. Affiliate finance requires agreed precision for amounts, percentages, and exchange rates so intermediate rounding does not create unexplained differences between a commission calculation and its final payable amount.

Practical example

Illustrative example: A 30% share of $10.01 is $3.003 before currency rounding produces a $3.00 payable amount.

Scaleo application: integration pattern

In a Scaleo-connected program, check decimal precision against the operator’s payment and finance records before reconciling the related affiliate activity. Exchange the agreed event references and amounts; a tracking record alone does not prove that a processor completed a payment or settled funds.
