Internationalization - Do you use regional friendly formatting?

Loading last updated info...

Currency formatting is not universal - therefore, it's crucial to adapt the formatting to match regional conventions.

In Australia, one million is written this way: $1,000,000.00. But in Brazil, one million is written that way: $1.000.000,00.

So, in order to be culturally sensitive, try and use regional friendly formatting.
