When I use the price string from the API, we see 12.99 like we have in the Apple app store. However, when I access the price itself in the Flutter client library, I see 12.989999771118164. I am not manipulating this price at all, I am printing it directly from Flutter lib. Do you think this is: 1) Apple weirdness 2) RevenueCat API bug OR 3) Flutter bug?

This is due to the nature of floating point decimals. More info in this Stackoverflow post here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21895756/why-are-floating-point-numbers-inaccurate
Rounding the float to 2 decimals should land you with the correct formatted currency. There may be some enhancement we could do in the SDK to improve how these are displayed.
Rounding something like 5.999 even to 2 decimals takes you to “6” so it won’t always work. Maybe in this case though

I don’t think you would run into that, since $5.99, converted to a float should still round back to $5.99. If it was $6.00 then you could see a case of 5.9999 or 6.0001.
I’m 3 years late, but a search showed this thread.
I have more or less the same issue. My 19.99 subscription shows as 19.98999999… I know about the float issue, but how can I fix this?
I found this, but how is it used?
