Yeah, we realized that problem a few minutes after publishing the question.
Maybe there is a service on google / android to request the default currency for a google account, but it seems a bit obfuscated because it depends on the billing address of the default credit card set up on the users google account. As a fast work around we are going to check with the user's locale and if it doesn't match we will try with other common locales. If it still doesn't match we will iterate over all locales. That method it's a shit, but at now is the only method I have found.... Thanks!
