Laravel Money is a Currency formatting and conversion package for Laravel. This package intends to provide tools for formatting and conversion monetary values in an easy, yet powerful way for Laravel projects.

Why not use the moneyphp package?

Because moneyphp uses the intl extension for number formatting. intl extension isn’t present by default on PHP installs and can give different results in different servers.

composer require akaunting/laravel-money

Register the service provider in config/app.php

Akaunting\Money\Provider::class,

Publish config file.

php artisan vendor:publish --tag=money

You can change the currencies information of your app from config/money.php file

Usage

echo Money::USD(500); // '$5.00' unconverted
echo new Money(500, new Currency('USD')); // '$5.00' unconverted
echo Money::USD(500, true); // '$500.00' converted
echo new Money(500, new Currency('USD'), true); // '$500.00' converted
